What Is Edible Glitter?
Brew Glitter® makes edible glitter simple to understand. Edible glitter is a decorative food-grade product that is made to be safely used in food or beverages when used as directed. Not all glitter is edible. Real edible glitter is made with approved food-grade ingredients and is created for consumption.
When people ask, "What is edible glitter?" the simple answer is: it is a safe decorative shimmer made for food and drink presentation. Brew Glitter® takes that idea further by creating specially made beverage-grade glitter.
Our Brew Glitter® products are made with the highest-quality ingredients on the market, use only FDA-compliant ingredients, are tasteless and don't dissolve! Lastly, our Brew Glitter® is made right here in the USA!

What Makes Brew Glitter® Different from The Other Brands?
Brew Glitter®'s sister company is Bakell.com (Bakell®), one of the biggest cake and craft supply companies in the US. We know the glitter, luster dust, and disco dust world inside out-we've been at it for years! So, why does this matter, and what makes Brew Glitter® different from other edible dusts and glitters?
First off, Brew Glitter® isn't your everyday "luster dust, petal dust, disco dust, or dazzler dust" from craft stores like Bakell®, Joann's®, Michaels®, or any decorating spot. Those are built for cakes and candies-stirring them into drinks is just an afterthought. They kinda work in beverages, but not really. So why is this important to know?
It is important to know because Brew Glitter® is specifically formulated to go into drinks, beverages, beer, cocktails and more! Our team uses a unique manufacturing process so the glitter suspends and swirls longer than typical luster dusts, which sink or float after 15-20 seconds. Although Brew Glitter® has characteristics similar to other edible glitters & dusts on the market, such as luster dusts, Brew Glitter® dusts & glitters are very different.
How does drink glitter work like this? Larger particles catch maximum light for that pearlescent pop, yet they're small enough to stay texture-free. Brew Glitter® is far more glittery, sparkly & shimmery than any edible glitter or dust on the market, and it is not even close. Our beverage-ready Brew Glitter® glitters really SHINE and SPARKLE through the liquid like no other product on the market
We developed Brew Glitter® dusts & glitters to do one thing really-really well, & that is to make beverages, drinks & liquids really shine, glitter, shimmer and swirl! There is a reason why brewglitter.com is the #1 site and brand for edible beverage glitters, because the Brew Glitter® mission is simple - we make every drink shimmer!
