Hi all, I've been looking at the instructions for the edible butterflies. They say to use wafer paper or rice paper and something about printing them off through an edible image printer. I have the printer, but can you use the edible image paper that you use for images, for the butterflies or is it to heavy? Any and all help would be great.

Thanks
Nikki

I don't think frosting sheets would work for butterflies as it isn't stiff enough. Your best bet would be the wafer paper.

Thank you for your reply,
Can the wafer paper go through an edible printer, from what I've read it says it can?

Thanks

You can't bend and cut the frosting sheets the way you can with wafer paper. You can use the wafer paper with your EI printer just fine.
