Pokeball Edible Cake Topper
Image size: 9.5x9.5cm
Ink: Edible food coloured ink
Image substrate: Icing Sheet (you can find the same design on wafer paper in my store)
Ingredients of Icing Sheet: Starches (E1422, E1412), maltodextrin, glycerin, sugar, water, stabilizers (E414, E460i), dextrose, emulsifiers (E435, E471), food colour (E171), flavours (vanillin), preservative (E202, E330).
Frosting Icing Sheet VS. Wafer/rice Paper
Wafer Paper:
It is made by potato starches, water and oil. It is thin and very close to a normal paper. It is half semi transparent.
Icing Sheet:
It is a thick layer of white icing make by sugar like fondant icing with sweet and vanilla taste. It is less transparent and capable to produce higher quality of printing. Compare with Wafer paper, it is easier to remove from the backing paper from the icing sheet and have better print quality.
Cutting edible icing sheets and wafer paper
For best results applied the topper to a cake at room temperature NOT a cake straight out of the fridge as this can cause the moisture to come up through the icing sheet.
Wafer paper does not have a backing sheet it can be applied onto cakes really easily. Simply lightly moisten the back of the wafer paper or the surface you are applying it to using a fine mist of water and apply but don’t over-wet. Wafer paper does have a tendency to curl if it’s applied to wet icing. If being used on buttercream apply it at the last minute or when the buttercream has formed a crust. Working from the center outwards, smooth any bubbles that may exist. A decorative piped edge can be added around the cake to hide the edge of the wafer paper.
Please note though, due to the nature of the icing sheet or wafer paper, images will never be as bright as on your digital device.
