Hi there, I’m commenting from Australia! The eyeballs are amazing. How did you do the irises? I have prepared my cake pops ready to decorate and have no idea how you got them so glossy and transparent. Please help! Thanks Sharon
Hi Sharon! Thanks so much!! The irises are made with Wilton brand Sparkle Gel, however, I don’t see why you couldn’t use piping gel, food color and some sparkle dust. I would make a ring with one color on the outside then make a ring with another color on the inside, then use a toothpick to draw one color into the other. After they had a chance to set up, I added the black. I found with the sparkle gel it helped to wait to add black so it did not bleed into the other colors. Hope that helps!! Have fun! Tina
