How to apply your edible cake topper

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

4 quick steps to help you apply your edible photo onto your cake! Brought to you by www.cakemyface.co.uk
How do I apply my photo?
The easiest way to remove the edible photo from its backing is simply to:
1. Apply a fine mist of water to the top of your cake if your cake icing is quite dry, this is to help the photo meld onto the cake.
2. Place the polythene bag and its contents in the freezer for 30 - 60 seconds.
3. Take out of the freezer
4. Quickly and carefully peel the photo away from its backing.
Still can't remove the photo from it's backing?
Don't panic - this is usually due to the humidity of the room. Here's the process:
1. Turn over the icing sheet onto its backing and use a hairdryer for 30 - 60 seconds to dry out. Alternatively place in a warm oven for a couple of minutes.
2. Wait to cool to allow icing sheet to stiffen
3. Then peel the backing sheet away from the icing sheet - you may find it easier to use the edge of a table to peel the sheet away from the icing.
Thanks for watching.

    Glad we could help- looks like your mum is in the know! It can be a bit tricky sometimes depending on the humidity- the topper needs to be as dry as possible too otherwise it can be hard to peel. The notes below the video should help too if you ever encounter problems again! See you soon - J&S

    Hi Cassandra. Yes, you can use regular buttercream frosting - just make sure you apply the topper as close to the event as possible as the topper will start to absorb the moisture from the frosting over time. FYI we would recommend using sugar paste as the most ideal base for our toppers. Hope that helps.

    Micki Crismon Hi Micki, no - just keep the image in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. If you refrigerate it, moisture could collect on the image. The photo toppers are usable for up to a year, however we recommend that you use within 4-8 weeks of purchase to minimise fading.

    Hi Charlotte, yes you can place on the sides of cakes- just use the same technique of lightly dampening the sides (if using royal icing), this allows the icing layer to stick better. We wouldn't recommend freezing the cake after you have applied the photo icing as this will be prone to cracking. Do ask if you have any more questions!

    Hi Lorraine. It depends what size you want the thistle to be. If smaller than 2" then we can print it on to a round cupcake topper - just order the half sheet, but if you want it bigger then we suggest you order an A5 topper and then you can cut it to size when you receive your order. Hope this helps.

    You will need an edible image printer to print any photos on the paper or take your photo to a bakery so they can print it for you.

    Hi Rina, If you want to apply to icing then this is absolutely fine. All you need to do is very slightly dab the icing with luke warm water and apply the topper (be careful not to make it too moist). Please let us know if you have any more questions.

    rina gawdat The toppers are always best applied to white icing / fondant. However, if the ganache is thick, then I'd recommend applying just before serving (to reduce the risk of the image bleeding through over time) and it should be fine.
