I just bought a set from KopyKakes. It has super fine on one end and regular on the other. They're great! It was only $8.95 for 10...

I agree, the fine tip on the KopyKake edible markers is very nice.

I just got some KopyKake edible markers and used them for the first time tonight. I think I got a crap batch or something because they didn't seem to work very well. Seemed dry or something? And one of them leaked in the bag. Boo.

I just use a fine paint brush and the food color right out of the bottle.

I think you definitely got a bad batch. I've had mine for over a year. I store them in the fridge and they work perfectly every time I use them.

How long have you had them?

Did you buy them directly from KopyKake? Even if you didn't, I'd e-mail them. They're very nice and easy to work with.

I literally just got them a day or two before I used them. I didn't order directly from them, though. I got them from one of the places that shall not be mentioned tapedshut.gif ever at CC! I haven't had any problems with this place, but maybe that was the problem in this case! Hmmm....

Ah Ha.............Doubt you'll get any satisfaction from THEM, but try contacting KopyKake--they really are nice. Explain how you came by them. Maybe they can offer you replacements for the cost of shipping.

To the previous post, Yes, the fine point end writes similar to a Bic ballpoint pen.
