How to: Edible Images / Frosting Sheets / Sugar Sheets
Lets talk about edible images, frosting sheets or sugar sheets. Whatever you call them they are made of starches and sugars and printed on with edible food colors. They can be used on cookies, cakes, fondant, royal icing, even chocolate.
Start by using high quality icing sheets from, pre-printed or if you have your own printer you can buy the pack at: http://www.aujanescakesupplies.com/item_1159/24-Pack-Supreme-Icing-Sheets-8.5x11-Letter-Size.htm

1. Start with a dry royal icing cookie (this photo was taken with my iPhone)
2. Mix a small amount of light corn syrup and water together to make a “glue” for you to adhere your frosting sheet to your dried royal icing cookie. (a little disco dust is in mines)
3. Use a clean and sanitized brush and apply a thin layer of your glue mixture to your dried royal icing cookie. (DO not apply glue mixture outside of your frosting sheet) iPhone
Apply a very thin layer, you don’t need much. iPhone
4. Be sure your edible image is already cut to the size you need before you apply your edible glue to your cookie. I always print an example on a regular sheet of paper to make sure of size and accuracy.
5. When applying your edible image lay it down on your cookie and press lightly from the middle and working your way to the edges to push any air bubbles that could be trapped out. NIKOND5200
6. Apple a border I used Ateco decorating too number 15, I started with a 13 and that was way to small so I needed to go larger, but not to large therefore I settled with the Ateco number 15. NIKOND5200
The two different tips used. NIKOND5200
Decorating tip Ateco #13, apple it half way on your frosting sheet and on your royal iced cookie. NIKOND5200
7. Apple any sprinkles while your icing is wet or leave as is...NIKOND5200

Use a well lit area to take your photos. NIKOND5200
