All my white LEDs have a peak at about 405 nm. Proper UV LEDs are quite rare and expensive.

Here is the spectrum of one of those SMD UV LEDs.

The easiest way would be to use a stencil and a small piece of coated laminate.

i have one of those "sun safe" sensor things, which changes colour when exposed to UVB.
when tested with a low power bluray laser it changed colour immediately, and the same sensor changed in a minute or so with a test 3mm UV LED.

EDIT:- you can also use a zombie diode (aka a blue laser which no longer lases) as a sensor.
Remove the can and shine the UV directly onto the top of the diode, this works.
its very sensitive to wavelength, 445nm doesen't affect it but 405 and 395 does.
