Decoration ideas can make a big difference to your sales and customer satisfaction. Edible ink can be applied in three ways: transferring through edible sheets, using edible marker, and using poppy paints.
Icinginks presents 5 decoration tips with edible ink, which you can apply depending upon the consumer’s demand.
1. Use Edible Designing Software
Like Photoshop and similar software for conventional creative designers, there are edible designing software for baking professionals. Experiment with your creativity and get amazing edible images in no time. While some edible suppliers may ask you to pay for the application, Free Edible Image Design Service is available at Icinginks with the many of the bundle edible printer offers. You may upload any image, and edit it the way you want, and then finally get the fine edible print for your yummy food.
2. Go with a Personalized Theme
Bakery business has become highly competitive. You always find new bakery outlets - online and offline – mushrooming everywhere. Personalization helps you get an edge over the competition and build an incredible identity. Everyone might be using the same edible printer and other supplies, but it’s the way you think and personalize the food item for your customers that makes you stand out in the crowd. Keep in mind personalization factors – age of the target audience, occasion, gender, etc., when you create your edible design.
3. Choose the Right Edible Sheet
Blank, colored, glossy, flexible and so on – edible sheets are available in all variants. You should use them as per their attributes to get the desired results. For example, if the cake decoration demands, doing a lace work around the border, it’s better to apply the flexible sheet by dampening it with a few drops of water. Likewise, glossy sheets are perfect for imparting the dazzling effect to your food item. Check different types of edible sheets.
4. Use Edible Marker on a Dry Hard Surface
Edible marker is a great way to get that perfect sharpness in your image. It makes the job easier as well. However, avoid using it on a highly-moistened and hard surface. It may not make out the color or come out smoothly. If your design demands use of edible marker in multiple shades, let the first color set well before adding another color to it so they don’t mix. Icinginks offers edible pens with double tips and standard tip. Successful bakery professionals adopt both as both have their specific uses.
5. Mix Your Poppy Paint Homogeneously
Poppy paint is a variant of edible ink that you can mix like water-color in a palette and then apply it in your edible design. Unlike water-color, here the cake paint is dissolved in food-grade alcohol, which dissolves the ink well and helps it dry fast – some dry even in few seconds while others may take a few minutes. Use separate brushes for different color shades to avoid mixing of the paint.
