PhotoFrost sheets are really good. He makes them in house. So its lots of hands on to make them really nice to work with and take off the backing and print on and melt into your sugar medium well... Hope this helps, Happy Cake Decorating

I recommend that you go with Canon printers. They have the whole printer kit, icing sheets, cartidges, etc with this system available.
I have a Canon Printer I purchased for this reason. I used it for a birthday cake, and it printed awesome. I have a tattoo style wedding cake for Saturday, and I spent 2 days making my image on Photoshop, making changes to the brides liking. I go to print, and It wont print properly. I print the image on my Epson, and it prints perfectly. I've had 3 IT Techs look at it, and they all cant find the solution. I will be calling tomorrow, and getting my refund for this piece of crap. I will purchase a airbrush kit. It's cheaper, and at least I know it will work when I turn it on. I am so disappointed (not to mention stressed)
AHow can you make your own frosted icing sheets? I won't be able to get them where I am going
AHi I am looking for the recipe to make the actual frosting/I ing sheet at home so I don't have to buy icing sheets. Please help as I'm going abroad and so.t be able to buy them there. Thanks
Hi,
If I am understanding you correctly, you are looking for the recipe to make your own icing sheets? Unfortunately you can't. You will have to take some with you. Depending on where it is you are going, we can ship to you if we do not have a distributor in the location you are going.

You cannot make your own without very very very expensive equipment!!! We do ship everywhere, we may even have a distributor there. Email our office at [email protected] and our office staff can help you. Please have a safe trip!
I know this is an old post, but the thing that may be messing it up might be the print head being dry. I have a Canon printer that I use, and each time I finish, I remove the ink cartridges and put their caps on, and store them in a zip-loc bag. I also remove the print head and run hot water over it until the water runs clear. Then I let it air dry completely before putting it back in the printer. Never had a problem.
That is a lot of work for an area that does not have extreme weather. Different inks do respond in different ways, however as long as you are using it regularly you should not have to go through all that trouble.

I don't use it very often.I moved last March and it's been in storage since then. Before that I only used it about three times. I've been busy teaching cake decorating rather than making cakes. I hope to make up some classes using it and making flowers out of printed papers and such.
That makes sense!!! What classes do you teach? I would love to see your work! If you are making flowers out of printed images have you seen iDesigns???? It is great for those who like using patterns!
