Explore The Sparkling Food Trend With Edible Glitter

Food artists continue to design food to make it look more upscale and one-of-a-kind, enabling food manufacturers to keep inventing new food decorations. One such invention is Edible Glitter, which was once used to draw attention to your project in art, and has now become a food decor to entice foodies. After the popularity of the mermaid churro sundae and unicorn cake trends, netizens are obsessed with the edible glitter trend. Food glitter has taken the internet by storm and is popping up on every netizen's Instagram feed, Pinterest boards, and food blogger's websites.

The glitter trend started with sparkling coffee in 2017 and soon rose to fame. Edible glitter was sprinkled on the latte, and soon it went viral on social media when a famous diner snapped and posted the sparkling latte on Instagram.

People began to use food glitter, and the trend quickly spread across the country, becoming well-known. Soon, food glitter was used by everyone, from professional bakers to home cooks. Food bloggers, Instagram influencers, and food vloggers started sharing edible glitter food recipes, videos, and photos. Soon, every food and drink sparkled, be it cocktails, beers, gravy, lattes, or bagels.

Glitter bagels have become a thing now and are considered the most bizarre trend.  

Speaking of bizarre trends, one of the weirdest glitter trends seen by the world was the glittering gravy. In London, a pub went all out with the glitter trend by mixing glitter in vegetable gravy and making it sparkle. Following this, bizarre glitter trends took off and went viral. A Californian cafe created rainbow glitter pizza, which quickly went viral on Instagram.

Restaurants began garnishing their dishes with edible glitter. Glitter tarts, smoothies, strawberry jelly, coffee, and even pizzas had colourful glitter toppings. Every second restaurant menu began to include edible glitter, and people began to consume glitter for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

Glitter, however, is not the only thing that attracts attention.

Apart from glitter, other food decorations such as sparkles, twinkles, dust, and mixes are also popular. Sparkles and Mixes are jewel-like flakes, while Twinkles are similar to glitter. The only difference between sparkles and twinkles is that twinkles have a more delicate texture than sparkles.

Sprinkle food decorations on dry food surfaces such as cakes, biscuits, crisps, cupcakes, chocolates, cookies, popcorn, coffee, and other food. It will dissolve on wet surfaces because it is made of food ingredients, just like they should digest in your stomach!

This food decor is digestible as food glitter is made of sugar, acacia (gum arabic), maltodextrin, cornstarch, and food-safe colour additives, making it edible.

One such food decorating company that enables bakers to create anything and everything they can imagine with food glitter- “Magic Sparkles!” They have a variety of food glittering supplies for making delectable and gleaming treats.

Magic Sparkles is a food decor company based in the United Kingdom; Karen Davis and Carol Smith are the ambassadors of Magic Sparkles.

Magic Sparkles offer a variety of food decors like edible glitter, mixes, sparkles, twinkles, and dust. The most incredible aspect of these food decorations is that a food veteran created them.

Going back in time, in the 1990s, food veteran and founder of Magic Sparkles, Mr Harish Patel, had the idea of bringing unique food decorations into the food industry. He became interested in food technology and, using his engineering skills, created beautiful sparkling and edible products with a prismatic effect when exposed to direct light. This is how Magic Sparkles products like Magic Twinkles and Sparkles were born.
