Edible images are printed designs or photographs that can be safely consumed, typically made from food-grade materials. These images are often created using specialized printers that use edible ink on thin sheets of frosting or rice paper. They are commonly used to decorate cakes, cupcakes, and other desserts, allowing for personalized designs for various occasions. The process of applying edible images is straightforward. The image is printed, cut out, and then placed on the dessert's surface, where it adheres easily. This technique is popular for celebrations like birthdays, weddings, and anniversaries, as it adds a unique and customized touch to sweet treats.
