Michael's or JoAnn's have little jars of paste food coloring, in any color that you want! They're very cheap, and last a long time (and are much better than liquid food coloring)!. also, you can find silver "dragees", which are the tiny little balls, in various sizes to decorate with!. I've actually gotten some of them on eBay !.!.!.!.!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
if you wanna make it and need to know where, you should probably do that at your house!.
as for buying it, call your local bakery and ask themWww@FoodAQ@Com

"When we make silver icing at work, we take a small bowl of white icing, add about 1-2 drops black food coloring gel to make it gray, then add 1-2 drops of royal blue gel to make it look silver!."Www@FoodAQ@Com
Type "silver" in the search bar at this site!. They have silver luster dust!. You can thin it with vodka & paint it onto icing!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
