Silicone brushes don't shed bristles into your food, they clean easily, and they are heat-safe. Useful when working with warm ganache, sugar syrup, or warm fondant adhesive. Nylon or bristle brushes are better for dry-dusting and detail edible painting. Both have their place in a well-equipped decorating kit. Can I use a silicone brush to apply edible lustre dust? Silicone brushes don't work well for dry lustre dust application. The silicone doesn't pick up or release powder the way bristles do. Use a nylon or foam brush for lustre and petal dust. The silicone brush is best kept for liquid and adhesive applications. Find all cake decorating tools and our full cake decorating supplies range at Baking Pleasures.
