Oct 30,2019 icinginks 0

Creativity has no limit and with the high-quality FDA-complaint edible sheets from Icinginks, it comes true. Whether it’s a birthday, anniversary, Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Year Eve celebration, or any other occasion, edible sheets help you making awe-inspiring designs on cookies.

1.   Shape your raw ideas with blank frosting sheets 

You came across some cookie decoration videos on YouTube, culinary blogging site, or at your nearby confectionary store. or got a brand-new idea that originated in your mind from nowhere. Now you want to make it yours. Blank frosting sheets can make it happen. A frosting sheet is a very thin piece of flavorless icing, very white. Print it with your image or pattern ideas and place it on your cookies while they are setting. The image or pattern gets transferred to the cookies.
2.   Use pre-cut edible sheet designs to decorate your cookies 

Decorating cookies with butterflies, corporate logos, typo arts, miniature signs, etc., could be a nice cookie decoration idea. Sounds a bit crafty! You can apply in no time by using pre-cut frosting or wafer sheet (rice paper) designs. Icinginks offer custom pre-cut designs – means you can customize your order by telling us what design you want to be die-cut on the sheet. Unlike our frosting and icing sheets, wafer papers do not have any plastic peel-off backing. Read the difference between frosting sheets and wafer sheets for a better understanding.

The sight of sparkling metallic textured cookies might have caught your attention. The secret behind them is the use of colored icing sheets, which are pre-printed. While purchasing make sure that the edible food color ink used in printing is FDA-compliant. The print retains high resolution and solid texture which a regular printer cannot produce. Cut any design or pattern out of the sheet using any electronic cutting machines, hand-cut paper cutting machines such as Brother and Crafter's Companion.

4.   Take food art to a new level with foldable edible sheets

If your cookie decoration needs bending or folding the edible sheet, go with foldable or flexible edible sheets. Icingink’s product line of flexible edible sheet is called as Flexfrost sheet. Print the flexible edible sheet with the image or pattern idea matching the celebration-theme, and stand out. Easily cut the printed sheet with scissors, blade or knife or give it a desired shape or pattern to make your yummy cookies look vibrant.

If you are left with little time but you can’t reign your creativity, use blank sugar sheets. They are perfect for printing any kind of image, cartoon, or design as they absorb the color quickly and displays vibrant colors of the image you selected. Once the frosting sheets are placed over the cookies, the moisture from the icing dissolves the paper, causing the image to sink into the frosting.
The aesthetics of cookie decoration is important but health is even more important. So, always make sure that edible supplies you use are duly approved by FDA or equivalent regulators.
