Anyone who knows me for longer than, say, five seconds, knows that I. LOVE. GLITTER . . . . . . on my nails, sprayed in my hair and on my clothes, and now, on cakes & mousses that I make. To paraphrase Paris Hilton - of all people: Some [women] are just born with glitter in their veins. Of course when I was born, glitter hadn't been invented yet, but for many years now, I've been making up for lost time. So when I saw how lovely the pink edible glitter looked, I purchased a variety pack (not that I'd ever get tired of pink glitter, but still) . . . I made STRAWBERRY MOUSSE #1, with the OREO™ base from the STRAWBERRY MOUSSE #2 Then I had the [what I thought] brilliant idea to put some of the OREO™ crumbs on top . . . . . . which actually was NOT a good idea to combine with the new glitters . . . It was so bad, the entire pic went out of focus . . . The ONLY good thing about this set of glitters is that the bottles had sprinkler caps . . . . . . which were a PITA to open up. And another color that made the pic go out of focus . . . . . . but the bit that ended up on the table shmeared all over the table and my hand when I tried to wipe it off dry. Which tells me this is DUST or POWDER, not GLITTER. The day before, I used the GOLD on this STRAWBERRY MOUSSE, and it looked rather nice . . . . . . which is why I was so disappointed with the other colors. So, did this disappointment discourage me from trying again? Of course not! This should arrive today . . .
