Cake decorating trends for 2016

[ChesterV]

Everyone seems to be going crazy for edible wafer paper toppers!

Yeah, that stuff is easy and fun to use and decorate with, but you have to be careful....you have to remember that stuff is super...SUPER refined sugars and starches and LOTS of artificial food colorings and preservative chemicals!!! In fact, thats ALL that stuff is made of.

They are called by many different titles.....
Fondant paper
Edible paper
Sugar sheets
Edible parchment
Cake tattoos

And if you are VERY artistic, you can create your own 3D artwork with this kind of "paper"...

If you are a high end caker, and you have a lot of requests for printed images on cakes and cookies...
you might look into one of these.....

Edible Image Printer.

It works with food coloring cartridges and uses fondant paper to print on.
It works just like a regular printer, except the paper is edible and the ink is too.
Very expensive though.
