Using My New Edible Image Printer | How I Use Edible Images

[@acemepe]

Thank you for sharing so many practicle tips that most cake decorators would not share. I’ve been making cakes for almost 7 years and the pins on the dummy cake just blowed my mind!

[@KarolynsKakes]

Yes!! Isn't is so funny how you can see a little thing and just be like..DUH! Why didn't I think of that?! LOL

[@tishagrant2770]

This was so detailed. I am so tires of trying to find someone to print edible images, especially last min. Thank you ao much. I am buying one this week... 😊

[@KarolynsKakes]

I did the same thing for a while and ended up spending more paying other people rather than just getting the system. It really was one of the best investments I've made for my business!

Hi! I get my edible cartridges at Icing Images. Where you get the cartridges, you can input your printer model number and it will tell you which ones work. I use 280 and 281 with mine. But I would just go to the site and enter it to be sure! shareasale.com/r.cfm?b=1817175&u=2948238&m=113258&urllink=&afftrack= Click the link above, then on the site, click EDIBLE INK, then EDIBLE INK CARTRIDGES AND SETS, then enter the model number (TS702) in the box and see if it says the same thing!

[@LignariusDM]

Thanks for this helpful video. Quick question have you ever printed in advance of an order? If so how do you store it and how long can you keep it for?

[@KarolynsKakes]

I have, but no longer than a week in advance. I store them in the silver envelopes that the icing sheets come in. If you don't have those, you can store it in a ziplock bag (I usually use 2...slide one on one end and the other bag on the other end because the sheet is longer than the bag).

[@KarolynsKakes]

It seems intimidating, but it is super easy, you just have to make sure you keep up with the weekly printing and maintenance so it doesn't get clogged. The cartridges that come with it are refillable 3 times before you have to get new ones. So make sure you have extra ink and cleaning supplies on hand!

[@KarolynsKakes]

Microsoft Word came installed on my computer (through Microsoft Office). It is a program that you have to purchase if your computer doesn't already have it. And it's just a learning process with the new system, you'll get used to it after working with it for a little bit! I have an entire playlist dedicated to Edible Printer tutorials on here to help you. 🙂

[@rubyquarles4419]

Hey btw I just want to say I am greatful for you. I have one question as I am doing my research of edible printers. I am a beginner and wouldn't use the printer often I see you said use it weekly or it will clog. Does that mean I shouldn't purchase one if I'm using it once or twice a month?

[@KarolynsKakes]

You can purchase one, you just have to print a tester page every week to keep the ink running through the system. It's really a judgement call, do you use edible images enough that you'd want a printer? Or do you want to pay someone else to print them for you? I was doing the latter until I started using them so much, that it made sense for me to invest in the system.

Hi I love your work could you do a video on how to use edible images on a buttercream cake or whippy cake?

[@KarolynsKakes]

Thank you! I usually don't apply the edible images directly to buttercream cakes. If you are in a humid climate and the cake starts to sweat, it could ruin the image. So you just have to be really careful. And whipped cream has a high water content and the edible image definitely won't last long on that.

[@akeshiacox8363]

Your image came out great! You've got a new subscriber! I just recently received the same printer and my edible images come out dull and dark. Lots of fourms say to adjust the "intensity" in the color management of the printer settings but I don't have that option. Does your printer settings have the "intensity" option?

[@KarolynsKakes]

Hi Akeshia! I actually haven't used that setting, but from doing some research, it looks like there is an intensity setting. I am going to look into it, I printed an image last week and the black turned out more of a navy blue. So it would be nice if there was an adjustment that could be made.

[@akeshiacox8363]

[@cindyalexis616]

Before you got your printing system did you ever order from a place for custom edible images?

[@KarolynsKakes]

I actually used to order from one of my local cake friends since she had the printer system. But then I found that I was spending so much money (and time driving to her) that it was more cost effective for me to invest in my own printer. And once I had it, I started using edible images way more on my cakes!

[@jessicajimenea4928]

how long does it last once its on the cake? how do you store it?

[@KarolynsKakes]

I have put the images on cakes up to 4 days in advance and haven't had any issues. I store all of my cakes in the refrigerator, so the images are on the cakes in the fridge. If you print them out and want to store them while not on the cake, I recommend keeping them in a ziplock bag. The best storage bag is the silver envelope that the icing sheets come in (I always keep them), but most people don't have those. I wouldn't print them more than 5 days in advance as the colors could start to fade or the icing sheet could start to dry out. You want to make sure that if it's hot / humid, you GRADUALLY bring the cake to room temp, especially if you have an edible image on it so it doesn't sweat. Condensation on the cake could ruin the image. I hope that helps!

[@MLKLegacy2]

Hi Do I need Microsoft word to do this ? Print edible image?

[@KarolynsKakes]

Hi! Icing Images actually recommends you use their iPrint system to print. But I found that wasn't necessary. I'm sure you can use whatever program you have to print. Try it out on a tester page (regular paper) before you print on an icing sheet to see if it works!

[@cindyalexis616]

Thank you so so much for the wonderful tutorial and yes the price has doubled! Darn Covid! I was wondering is a cricket or a cutting machine needed especially when you’re doing multiple images like for cupcakes or is it cheaper to invest in the punchers like if someone needed to print 100.. 3 inch round for cupcakes or cookies it’s a lot of cutting to do LOL thank you again you are a true blessing! trying to start a small teeny baking business and I’ve worked with icing sheets before but I just order them was thinking on getting an edible printing system..

You can't use a printer that has had regular ink run through the system. Like if you want to take the regular cartridges out of your printer and put edible ones in there...you should not do that. Regular printer ink is toxic and is in the printer head. If you print out an edible image on a printer that had regular ink in it, the toxic ink is still in that printer. And you don't want anyone to eat the toxic ink. So I have a printer that is completely separate from the one I use for everyday use. My edible printer is ONLY used for my edible images. No regular ink has (or ever will be) in that printer. I hope that makes sense!

I am interested in purchasing an Edible printer. Is there special ink you need to use? does it have to be an edible printer? can you use a printer just used for printing edibles? sorry to bombard you with so many questions. thank you

[@KarolynsKakes]

Hi! Yes, you must use only edible ink and only use that printer for edible images, never to be used to print with toxic ink. I have a separate edible image printer from my regular printer!

Can you show a video on placing edible image on chocolate covered treats like Rice Krispie treats, pretzels, Oreos, and candy apples

[@KarolynsKakes]

I'm sorry, but I don't make those. I bet Icing Images channel may have videos on that!

[@truemakeup801]

I went to download word and it said I had to pay for it to download it lol did I do it wrong? I don’t remember having to pay for it when I was younger

[@KarolynsKakes]

It probably came with your computer back in the day. Now, you have to purchase the program separately.

[@andywilliamsjr]

such an incredibly helpful video. you speak so clearly with such specific detail. I really appreciate you

[@KarolynsKakes]

Awwww you're so sweet! I'm glad I could help you!

Where can I get this printer. I don't know what to get and I want the pictures clear

[@KarolynsKakes]

I linked the site where I got my printer in the description below!

Thank you

Do you have to use fondant ?

[@KarolynsKakes]

You don't have to. I just find that when you adhere the image to fondant that it keeps its shape. It doesn't warp or wrinkle. But you can stick it directly onto a cake without the fondant on the back.

Please tell me can i use same idea to print on chocolate

[@KarolynsKakes]

I believe you can use the flex frost sheets found on IcingImages.com website to print and put on chocolate. I don't think the regular edible paper I used in this video would work on chocolate.

[@QuranNoorr]

Thank you I just made my purchase

[@KarolynsKakes]

I hope you love it as much as I do!

[@angelarobinson1706]

Do i still need a cricut if i have this printer

[@KarolynsKakes]

I believe there are cricuts that work with the edible images but I’ve never used it so I’m not sure. You can check the Icing Images website I believe they have them.

[@tellAPnJ]

which website do you get your images?

[@KarolynsKakes]

Icing Images, here ya go! (This is my affiliate link) shareasale.com/r.cfm?b=1817175&u=2948238&m=113258&urllink=&afftrack=

Is the piping gel edible?

[@KarolynsKakes]

Yes it is!

[@debkroger7057]

Do you use edible images often?

[@KarolynsKakes]

I used to use them a few times a month, but now it seems like I use that printer every week!

[@armandomunguia814]

Can u put these images on whipped cream

[@KarolynsKakes]

There is a lot of water in whipped cream, which can ruin the edible images. So I wouldn't recommend it. You may be able to do it if you put the image on fondant (like I did in this video) and then put it on the whipped cream right before serving. But I wouldn't leave it on too long just in case it ruins the image. If you try it, please let me know how it goes!
