Transfer Photo to Top of Cake
Many people are unaware that it is possible to add pictures to the top of cakes. Some attempt to trace or replicate images with frosting, but the results are not nearly as good as an actual picture. An actual photo cake toper can make a truly unique cake.
A special scanner will scan an image and print it with edible printer ink onto edible paper. The scanner is pretty expensive, keeping it from home cake decorators.
An alternative to purchasing this scanner is contacting your local Baskin Robbins and explaining what you want to do. Most Baskin Robbins owners have the necessary scanner, ink, and paper. After the picture has been printed all you need to do is put the paper on top of the cake.
So, the next time you are in need of a cake decorating idea look to your photo album for inspiration. If you are getting ready for a child’s birthday, imagine how delighted the child will be to see his or her picture on top of the cake!
