How do I do this? I have an order for ninja turtle cookies and printed a pic off the internet. How on Earth do I get it onto a cookie? I did it once with Diego and used piping gel but it was a total pain. I can't freehand to save my life  Any thoughts? Thanks! |

Print it on rice paper using a printer with edible ink - that means, purchasing a printer exclusively for use with edible colors and 'never' using it with regular ink. You can purchase rice paper at your local cake supply store, some even sell them by the sheet. |

You just royal ice your cookie and place the image on top of the royal. (Fatandhappy) my partner did dart and dart board cookies with edible image. Just let the icing dry, peal the back of the image and brush it lightly with water, then apply.
You can also royal your cookie first, let it dry really hard and hand draw with edible markers. You can also cut a preice of fondant and place it on a the cookie warm. Let it dry and then draw on it with edib le marker or place an edible image. |

Sorry, my computer here is acting up and I didn't mean to print so many times.
I bought my printer from Office Max and my inky and icing sheets from Icing Images. |

I bought my printer a couple of years ago on Ebay and by my supplied from www.icingimages.com -- they have been very helpful.
If I am doing a lot of cookies, I just use a pastry brush with some sugar water to brush the cookie and then apply my image. |
