I would like to create this hello kitty pendant in fondant and I was wondering how I could get that diamante effect. Any ideas? Thanks.

I don't know anything edible that would give you that effect. If it's not going to be eaten you could use rhinestones. Use a gumpaste tool to make an indentation into the fondant just a bit smaller than the gem and press them in individually.

Or, if you are not against using Disco dust you could try that to get the sparkle. Remember, it isn't edible either.
