Are you unsure about choosing an edible printer? Here, we introduce what you need for making photo cakes and recommend edible printers, all of which you should check before requesting sample creation from a specialty store that handles edible printers.
What you need for making a photo cake
You may be considering utilizing an edible printer to make a photo cake. Before requesting a sample to be made, let's first review what is needed to make a photo cake.
Edible printer
An essential item for making photo cakes is the "food printer," also known as an edible printer. It works like a regular printer but uses edible ink to print on food or edible sheets. There are options for store use, commercial use, and home use, so it's important to choose the right edible printer based on the quantity of photo cakes you plan to produce.
Edible Sheet
In photo cake making, there are two main methods: printing directly onto chocolates or cookies and printing onto edible sheets. Edible sheets, made primarily from starch, are safe to eat. When printing on chocolates or cookies, there are size and thickness limitations, but edible sheets can be cut into any size or shape. This makes them versatile for decorating various food sizes and items that are difficult to print on.
Edible ink
To print designs, edible ink is required. There are inks made from natural pigments and those made from synthetic pigments. Since it's for food, it's important to carefully follow storage instructions and keep track of expiration dates to ensure safety.
Personal computer
The operation of the edible printer can be done directly on the device, but when adjusting layouts such as images, a computer may be necessary. When using your own computer, it's important to check whether it is compatible with the operating system required by the edible printer.
