BEST WAY TO WORK WITH A SHEET OF CUPCAKE/COOKIE TOPPER CIRCLES – Icing Sheet print:
Cupcakes and Cookie toppers are round most of the times. Many people use scissors to cut them out one by one first, then apply to product or a layer of thinly rolled fondant, then cut again… Too much of a hassle! 
Try doing the following: roll out a very thin (thickness of 1-3 post cards) sheet of fondant or a mixture of fondant and Tylose powder/ gum paste (even better!). Apply the entire printed sheet on to it carefully removing air bubbles if any. Let it sit for 5 min to merge completely. Then take a cookie cutter of the same diameter as your circles and cut through both layers at once. The thinner your fondant is rolled, the crispier the cut line will be. And no, it will not affect the taste or texture much.
You may now apply your cutouts to baked product, or leave them to dry for an hour or overnight to become more rigid and hold shape better. You may even place them upright on top of your cupcakes!

Can I ask you to find the image/character I want or do I have to find it myself?

I do not sell or provide any images for your print.

You submit your own image files – I print them on a chosen layout with or without minor alterations as per your request.

Here is why:

Most of the images found online are licensed or copyright protected. If I offer you those images, it would be equal of me selling them along with my services. I provide printing and layout/minor alterations services only and can not legally offer, provide or sell any copyright protected or licensed image as a product.

By uploading your image, you as a customer take full responsibility for obtaining all copyright and the authorization to use the image. 

I can, however, help you to find good quality images for uploads:

How do I find the right file for better print quality?

Please, visit this page for image finding tips and Image Size Calculator CLICK TO READ >>>

Can I create a Print File with Multiple Images by myself to save on file fee?

Absolutely!

First, do make sure the images you are using have good print resolution! If you want a quality print, you need to get good size images.
Check this link for Image Size Calculator and image finding tips.

You may also downoad my Full Page PDF template if you are creating the print file yourself.

If you send me your own ready to print PDF file of the right print size, I really don’t care how many images you fit onto it (example: cupcake toppers – you may fit several circles onto 1 page and send me your ready to print file).

I accept PDF, JPG or PNG files only and will NOT print from Word, PowerPoint or any other file format.

If you are familiar with creating a PDF file with images, you should be good, because this is the best file format for printing. It respects exact  size and position of all design elements.

You can use any image editing software you are familiar with, downoad my Full Page PDF template with safety margins, open it in your software and place anything you want within page limits. Then save your file and upload.

Saving your PDF without size reduction at 300 dpi resolution is best:
File → Save as → PDF
Compression: do not downsample.

If you are using Adobe Illustrator, please do not forget to do the following before you save your file:

  1. Select all your placed images one by one and click Embed to ensure that they will be attached to your saved file.
  2. If you are adding any text to your image, select all of it, choose Type→Create Outlines.
    Illustrator gives you the opportunity to change text into outlines or artwork. Basically, you change the text into an object, so you can no longer edit that text by typing. The plus side is that it saves you the trouble of sending fonts to everyone who wants to use the file.

Can I order 1/2 a page? What is the minimum order?

Sorry, but I can’t sell 1/2 page prints.

Minimum order is 1 full page, regardless of how small of an area your image may take on it.

However, if your image size allows, I can place it 2 times on the page so you may have a spare copy of it.

Can I place your Edible Print on top of a Store-Bought Cake?

Many of my clients do place their edible images on store-bought cakes following my
ICING /FROSTING SHEET APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS

When placing your order, please, do not forget to let me know exactly what shape (round or rectangular) and how large you want your image to be printed because there is no such thing as a standard cake size. I am also not able to suggest which size print you need based on the number of cake servings.

You can always measure the cake top area yourself or ask the bakery to do this for you.

Can I print Edible Money?

Yes, but there is a small BUT!

Not all images of paper currency may be printed.

When any printer or photo copier analyzes a page before printing it and it contains any money images, the printer software senses a certain pattern used on most modern bills. It will immediately stop the printing function. This is done in an attempt to prevent common people from breaking the law by counterfeiting their own currency. This is known as the Counterfeit Deterrence System and it works regardless of whether you try to print real money, play money or edible paper bills for cake decorating.

You may, however, get lucky and find some money bill images that will print!
How do you know if they will? You have to test it on your home printer (or any other printer), and that is the only way of knowing.

So, before sending me a page of edible money bills to print, please do check on your home printer first. If it prints the whole page on your printer, then you may submit your print file and it will most probably print on mine, too. If not – keep looking for other images online until you find the one that will pass the printing test and make sure to save it on your computer to use later if you need more copies!

You may submit your single money bill image at Logo Sheet Layout, or, if you are able to create a page with multiple bills yourself, you may submit your ready to print PDF at Full Page Layout.

Here are the tested printable bill files for you to download to save the time:

To save you the trouble, I have created a ready to print layout with tested currency images which do print well.

Cancellations and Refunds

Cancellations and Refunds:

Once your product is manufactured (images are printed or a cake topper was made), you will receive an order update email saying “Your products were created!”. As of this point any orders are non-refundable, unless I made any mistakes / messed-up your order (an extremely rare case, but I am a human, not a robot).

If your product, however, was not printed/manufactured yet, I may issue a full refund. 

Rush orders are printed/manufactured on the same day right after I get the payment, so I can not issue refunds for those.


If a print job/cake topper was canceled by Edible Print Montreal (Key Art Studio Cakes) for any reason, a full refund will be issued.

Regular Mail (Lettermail) orders

Regular Mail (Lettermail) shipping service is usually quite reliable, however:
Due to inability to either track Regular Mail shipments or have a proof of whether they were delivered or not,  I do not take any responsibility for lost, stolen, damaged, undelivered or unclaimed Regular/Standard mail (Lettermail) orders.

I do keep a picture proof of your created product(s) along with the proof of shipping which may be requested by you at any time, no questions asked.

Four more reliable and secured mail service, please select Expedited or Express shipping which has:

  • guaranteed delivery day

  • tracking number

Payments methods accepted:
I accept e-Transfers, PayPal and Credit Crds (via PayPal checkout, no need to have/create PayPal account).
Sorry, but I do not accept Tangerine transfers, standard e-Transfer only.

No cash on pick-up, no exceptions.

How do I Store my Edible Print and Finished Cake with applied image?

To ensure freshness, pliability and color of your Icing Sheet edible image decal, use it within 4 weeks.

EDIBLE PRINT STORAGE
Keep your frosting sheet in its original heat-sealed zip bag until you are ready to use it.  Once cut open, use immediately. Store remaining parts of the unused decal in closed zip bag to prevent drying.  
Store your edible image print in a cool, dry location away from direct light to avoid fading.
Do not store in the freezer or refrigerator.

During winter: The prints may crack or shatter when frozen. When picking-up, protect from exposing to freezing weather. |

FINISHED CAKE STORAGE
Once your image is applied to a cake, you may then store it in a dry (home) fridge.
Commercial humid walk-in fridges may cause colors to run, so you may want to place your cake inside a cardboard box to keep extra humidity away and absorb any potential condensation.

Edible Print Montreal (Key Art Studio Cakes) cannot be responsible for the print care, storage and transportation once the print was given to the customer.

If the customer follows the instructions provided no problems should occur.

How good is the Print Quality and Color? – See samples!

Being an experienced cake artist for more than 10 years and having a background in graphic and web design and digital print production, I am honored to offer you the most convenient, reliable, high quality and professional edible image printing services: the size is exact, the colors are vibrant, the red is red. I do know what I am doing!

I always review your files and may suggest image quality improvements if I feel that it can boost the final result because I DO CARE!

I also take time to maintain and calibrate my printer, as well as keep the most fresh stock of edible paper to produce high quality edible prints for your wonderful creations every time.

I strongly recommend choosing Icing Sheets for prints that are applied on top of cakes (fondant, buttercream, whipped cream), cupcakes, cookies, chocolate, candy ets. Unless you need to use it for some specific cake decorating applications and you know what you are doing (see wafer paper info below). 

The major difference between the two types of edible paper is the print quality due to paper properties. 

You may look at it as a difference between a newspaper print (Wafer Paper) and a magazine print minus the gloss (Icing Sheet).

The Icing Sheet is dense, pliable and opaque.
The Wafer Paper is semi-translucent, somewhat brittle and porous.

ICING SHEETS PROPERTIES AND APPLICATIONS

ICING SHEET / FROSTING SHEET is an actual layer of vanilla icing that merges or adheres with the icing on the baked good.
They are made of 2 layers: a flexible sugar icing layer and a non-stick easy to peel backing paper. They can be applied to all types of cakes, cupcakes, cookies, chocolate, Sugarveil®, fondant, blown sugar, etc.

The paper is opaque, dense and white enough to print photographs with clean and crisp image quality* (*please, note that quality of any print greatly depends on source file resolution.)

When an edible image is placed over a dark background, it is less likely for the background color to show through the image if it is printed on a dense Icing Sheet.

WAFER PAPER PROPERTIES AND APPLICATIONS

WAFER / RICE PAPER is a thin translucent sheet of potato starch, water, and vegetable oil. Wafer paper is more translucent and any colored background, such as color of your cake icing or fondant, will affect the image easily.

The wafer paper is somewhat brittle.  It is mostly used for some very specific cake decorating purposes like partially attached dimensional book pages and scrolls, 3D origami objects, leafs or butterflies. If you have never tried using it, please look for tips and application methods online.

You may also purchase ready-made Wafer Paper Decorations in my Shop.

EDIBLE FABRIC SHEETS (FlexFrost) PROPERTIES AND APPLICATIONS

FlexFrost Fabric SHEET is an edible sheet that has fabric like properties. It is more durable and flexible than an icing sheet and does not dry out very fast, but will still merge if desired. Flows like actual fabric and easily adheres to all forms of mediums with a little bit of water.
Great for bows, drapes, wraps, swags, dresses, purses and many other dimensional cake decor elements.
Here is a link to one of many great tutorials on how to work with edible fabric

Please, kindly note that Edible Print is a cake decorating product which has many different applications and I can not provide extensive tutorials on all of them. It is your responsibility to research and learn the necessary cake decorating techniques in order to achieve the results you want. Google and YouTube both have many free tutorials!

What are the Designer Fees+ ?

Designer fees+ are applied to cover the cost of me creating a print file with requested alterations such as adding some custom text or a multiple image per page placement according to your preferences and options offered.

Some designer fees are optional and some may be attached to your selected layout as mandatory and will be marked with a star (*).

Designer fees+ are calculated automatically and applied once per layout only as a one-time fee (just to create a print file). You may then select any number of printed copies of this layout and they will be sold at the price of selected edible paper only and subject to bulk discount (see "Discount per page for multiple copies of this print" section).

Want to save on designer fees? Create a ready to print JPG, PNG or PDF file by yourself (click for the tips)  and select a Full Page image layout to submit your order.

  • I will review all submitted files before printing and contact you if you need to email me a larger file for better print quality.

1. Make sure your focal character(s) is/are surrounded by enough background space so when I draw a circle around them, no parts of important features are falling outside of it.



2. Make sure that both width and height of your image are at least equal or larger than the circle diameter you want.

 
3. Try selecting a more square image rather than narrow.

Make sure there is enough free space around person's face so when a circle is drawn around it, the entire face/head fits inside.

4. Avoid long text or rather ANY text below, above or anywhere near your focal image. Some parts of it will most probably fall outside of the circle.


Why Screenshots should be avoided for printing purposes?

A screenshot, sometimes referred to as a screencap or screengrab, is an image that shows the contents of a computer or mobile device display.

When you take a screenshot of an image, you usually lower this image quality significantly and it almost always results in print quality loss.

Screenshot quality and resolution depends on your display resolution. The higher the display resolution, the better the screenshot. Then on top of it, even if your device has a good screen resolution, the image source you are trying to capture as a screenshot may be poor to begin with.

The only sure way to get a proper image for printing is to do the following:

  1. Touch and hold the image that you wish to save for about 2 seconds until a menu appears.
  2. Select “Save Image“ or "Download Image"

When you submit your order, click on SELECT AND UPLOAD YOUR FILE button and select this image from your phone gallery.

2. Make sure that both width and height of your image are at least equal or larger than the circle diameter you want.

4. Avoid long text or rather ANY text below, above or anywhere near your focal image. Some parts of it will most probably fall outside of the circle.


How to provide proper measurements for your image

In summary, please do two things:

1. Provide exact measurements in inches or centimeters only, indicate what is width and what is height. I can not guess your image size based on your cake size or number of servings.  Instructions like "it's for a 6 inch cake", "long enough to cover my cakes perimeter" or "to fit on the side of my mom's cake" will not be accepted. I also do not keep records of your past orders to recall measurements from unless you have ordered a file storage for future re-print service.
 
2. Instead of giving me exact width and height, try to give me just one dimention priority: either height or width.

Here is why:
Any image you upload has it’s own proportions – a relationship between its width and height. Stretching it in one direction only will result in proportion change when your logo or person’s face/body is changed beyond recognition. Think of it as if you print it on a rubber band and then try to stretch it along height or width only.

When you ask me to resize your image to exact both width and height, it is almost never possible without resulting in image distortion.

I do suggest you give me either width or height priority only to preserve your image proportions the way they are meant to be.

Or, if image allows, to crop some parts of it out.

Here is an example:

You send me a logo and ask to re-size it.

Here is what happens when you provide me with both exact width and height values for your re-sized image (in this case 4" wide by 5" tall):

But if you prioritize just one of the measurements, in this case ask me to make it 4" tall, your image remains its correct proportions.

WAFER / RICE PAPER is a thin translucent sheet of potato starch, water, and vegetable oil.

 

 

 

I strongly recommend choosing Icing Sheets for prints that are applied on top of cakes (fondant, buttercream, whipped cream), cupcakes, cookies, chocolate, candy ets. Unless you need to use it for some specific cake decorating applications and you know what you are doing (see wafer paper info below). 

The major difference between the two types of edible paper is the print quality due to paper properties. 

You may look at it as a difference between a newspaper print (Wafer Paper) and a magazine print minus the gloss (Icing Sheet).

The Icing Sheet is dense, pliable and opaque.
The Wafer Paper is semi-translucent, somewhat brittle and porous.

ICING SHEETS PROPERTIES AND APPLICATIONS

ICING SHEET / FROSTING SHEET is an actual layer of vanilla icing that merges or adheres with the icing on the baked good.
They are made of 2 layers: a flexible sugar icing layer and a non-stick easy to peel backing paper. They can be applied to all types of cakes, cupcakes, cookies, chocolate, Sugarveil®, fondant, blown sugar, etc.

The paper is opaque, dense and white enough to print photographs with clean and crisp image quality* (*please, note that quality of any print greatly depends on source file resolution.)

When an edible image is placed over a dark background, it is less likely for the background color to show through the image if it is printed on a dense Icing Sheet.

WAFER PAPER PROPERTIES AND APPLICATIONS

WAFER / RICE PAPER is a thin translucent sheet of potato starch, water, and vegetable oil. Wafer paper is more translucent and any colored background, such as color of your cake icing or fondant, will affect the image easily.

The wafer paper is somewhat brittle.  It is mostly used for some very specific cake decorating purposes like partially attached dimensional book pages and scrolls, 3D origami objects, leafs or butterflies. If you have never tried using it, please look for tips and application methods online.

You may also purchase ready-made Wafer Paper Decorations in my Shop.

EDIBLE FABRIC SHEETS (FlexFrost) PROPERTIES AND APPLICATIONS

FlexFrost Fabric SHEET is an edible sheet that has fabric like properties. It is more durable and flexible than an icing sheet and does not dry out very fast, but will still merge if desired. Flows like actual fabric and easily adheres to all forms of mediums with a little bit of water.
Great for bows, drapes, wraps, swags, dresses, purses and many other dimensional cake decor elements.
Here is a link to one of many great tutorials on how to work with edible fabric

Please, kindly note that Edible Print is a cake decorating product which has many different applications and I can not provide extensive tutorials on all of them. It is your responsibility to research and learn the necessary cake decorating techniques in order to achieve the results you want. Google and YouTube both have many free tutorials!
