Custom Edible Images
Edible Images are digital photos or drawings printed with edible inks onto edible paper to place on cakes, cookies and chocolates. Here at Cakes Around Town, we pride ourselves on offering the best service in the industry. Our printing staff are trained in the art of commercial print and understand resolution and colour difference. We also understand that time is of the essence and we do our best to meet difficult deadlines for commercial applications and large runs. With cost effective bulk printing rates we think you will love our work.
This video created in our own classroom at Cakes Around Town, shows how edible images are taken off their backing sheet and placed on a sugar fondant covered cake. Its a quick look at the great effect you can get. It also talks about how humidity can make it a little difficult to remove your sheets off their backing, and how to over come it with the use of the fridge and or airconditioning.
Type of icings and frostings to use
Various icings can be used, however a very wet whipped cream or some non-dairy topping can cause the image to fade if left in the refrigerator. Buttercream icing, ganache and Pettinice (white plastic/fondant icing) works the best. Images can also be applied to white chocolate as a plaque. Lightly brush water onto the chocolate plaque before applying the image. If applying to dark chocolate, red, dark blue, purple, black icing, place a white coloured icing under the image as otherwise the colour will be able to be seen through the image.
