Wait a minute before pushing out the fondant piece
Place onto a paper towel
Using the gold spray, spray the fondant pieces lightly until you get the desired gold shade you like
Repeat with the pink spray
Once done spraying with the pink spray, add some gold to give it a shine
Using more fondant and the gloves, add 1 drop of purple or teal to the fondant and knead in your hands till the fondant is completely dyed and theres no wet dye left
