Do you want *glow in the dark* or *UV reactive*?
Theses aren't necessarily the same thing.....
And, the amount of Tonic Water - or any UV reactive pigment - required to get a UV Reaction will depend on the amount of UV Wattage and how close that wattage is to the cake.
Regular white fondant glows best under black lights. ... I tested this out and the tonic water really didn't have much of an effect like I was looking for. You can use those edible glow in the dark body paints though and they glow in the darkand are food safe. :)
OK so it worked great after I airbrushed the cake I sprayed it with the tonic water about 4 separate times wait after each spray for it to dry and then sprayed it again I didn't get a picture because I didn't have a black light but the customer said it glowed thanks for your replies

Yep. Edible glow in the dark body paints - those that I've seen are pretty much tinted piping gel.
The pigment load is pretty low, but they are a good choice.
Now, regular bodypaint..... that's a whole other thing.
Where do I find the edible glow in the dark paint? The glow in the dark body paint I'm finding is toxic.
I've done some searching on the internet.
There are edible body paints, but I haven't found ANY edible glow in the dark body paints. There are "non-toxic" edible GITD body paints, but non-toxic items ARE NOT EDIBLE-ever. Non-toxic is never used to describe something that can be eaten.
There are several articles about adding tonic water to colors to get them to glow under black light.
