A special gift idea
Edible gold makes a great gift for passionate amateur chefs. With the Gold-Leaf-box, the lucky recipient will gain his first experience with this fascinating thin gold leaf.
The greater the ambitions, the more gold leaf refills may be reordered. Here we offer the right pack for every need:
With loose gold leaf, the gold leaves are inserted into a booklet made of extra thin paper. Thereby, the gold leaves lie loose on the individual pages and can easily be removed and processed with a special brush for gold leaf.
The same applies to gold leaf transfer, where the sheets of gold are first inserted into a booklet. But now the big difference: with gold leaf transfer, the gold is pressed onto the extra thin paper until it adheres.
To process gold leaf transfer, you take the gold leaf along with the paper out of the booklet and place it on the food with the gold side down, just like a temporary tattoo. By applying gentle pressure to the back of the backing paper, the gold comes off and sticks to the food.
Gold Gourmet products are made of real gold leaf (E175) and silver leaf (E174).
In order to simplify the labeling on foods, the European Union has given each food additive a so-called E-number. E174 is the E number for silver leaf. E175 for gold leaf.

24 karat gold is very soft, which makes flakes and powders clump together quickly and decorating food almost impossible. The Gold Gourmet gold flake, on the other hand, stands out with its excellent volume and reflection.
