You're right it isn't the right stuff...it says "Composition imitation" leafing on the package. You need to use fine silver leaf.

Hope this helps,

No, that's aluminum. Looks silver, but it's not real. You need silver foil.

bag says "composition imitation leafing" "alum"
I tried something that said "real gold leaf" from the craft store... ewww.. what a disaster!!!

Look for 'Fine Silver' or '0.999 Silver'.
