Edible Glitter & Pearl Pigment for Wine

Food-grade shimmer for festive wines, gift bottles and sparkling serves — engineered to stay suspended, resist caking and respect your compliance file.

For wine decoration use our food-grade edible glitter: fine, insoluble particles that disperse on the surface and stay suspended without clumping at the bottle bottom. Our food-grade pearl pigment offers a pearlescent decorative alternative to titanium-dioxide (E171)-based matte white in decorative formats, with packaging that has passed SGS testing against EU PPWR. FDA / Kosher compliant; supporting documents available on request. Free 5-10 g samples ship in 3 working days.

Where Shimmer Meets Wine

Wineries, festive gift-bottle programs and sparkling-serve brands use edible glitter to turn an ordinary pour into a shareable moment — swirling glitter wine videos remain one of the most re-shared formats on social media. But wine is a demanding base: low pH, chill temperatures and alcohol all work against ordinary glitter, which clumps, sinks or clouds the pour.

Our food-grade pearl pigment is treated with a food-grade anti-caking agent so it flows freely from sachet to glass, disperses in chilled low-pH drinks and stays in decorative suspension instead of forming a sediment cake. For gift programs we support private-label sachet formats — guests sprinkle before serving, keeping the bottle line untouched.

Wine & Edible Glitter — FAQ

Three factors matter: particle cut, surface treatment and dosage. Our food-grade grades carry an anti-caking treatment and a fine cut that disperses in chilled, low-pH wine; dose at the low end first (around 0.01-0.05% by weight) and we confirm the exact rate for your base and ABV.

Yes. The pigment is an insoluble mica-based food-grade decoration — it does not dissolve or react with ethanol, and it stays stable in the pH range of wine, sparkling wine and RTD cocktails.

For surface shimmer use an extra-fine cut (directional range below 15 µm); for in-bottle suspension 10-40 µm gives a controlled decorative settle. Exact distributions are grade-specific — the product manual is the single source of truth, and we share the TDS before sampling.

Our food-grade grades are FDA / Kosher compliant; supporting documents available on request, with lot-traceable TDS, SDS and COA. Intended for decorative food use; confirm your local food-regulation category before launch.

Our food-grade pearl pigment offers a pearlescent decorative alternative to titanium-dioxide (E171)-based matte white in decorative formats. We supply both a TiO₂-Free (E171-free) route and a standard TiO₂-coated mica route, by model — tell us your market and we confirm the suitable grade.

Yes — Halal-compliant (statement of conformity available). Kosher certification is also in place; we provide the documents your market requires without claiming certification numbers publicly.

Keep sealed in the original packaging, cool and dry, away from direct sunlight. The anti-caking treatment keeps the powder free-flowing, but re-seal after opening and avoid humidity to preserve dispersion performance.
