So how do i make the gold Fondant with the powder and vodka?

i am making a 50th wedding anniversary cake for my boyfriend's grandparents. i found a really cool cake online, and it had different size of thickness strips in gold on the side and then different colored flowers with gold tips on top... i really want to make something like this but i am not sure how to do it... every time i try to make the fondant gold, it comes out more of an orange so i think i am going to use the dust..what technique and stuff should i use? (like vodka and brand of dust)So how do i make the gold Fondant with the powder and vodka?
We use ';supergold'; lusterdust. www.sugarcraft.com, tons of colors.





Almond extract is cheaper, and works better than vodka. The higher the alcohol content the better, you want it to evaporate.





When painting Very little liquid, lots of dust. NOT the other way around. Use any kind of paint brush.
