i plan to do a 10 inch round for the puck, no problem. the customer wants the vancouver canucks logo in the middle, just like a real hockey puck. i dont have any kind of edible image printer. how do you think the best way to do this would be? i can either do fondant pieced together, or colourflow. any suggestions for me?
i havent tried frozen buttercream transfers before either
thanks so muchicon_smile.gif

all would work.

which do you feel most comfortable doing?

if it were me -- i'd print out the logo, cut into pieces to create patterns and have at the fondant -- but then I like fondant and hate BC. Colorflow isn't my strong suit either.

I'm with Doug. Pieces of fondant. That's what I did on this Canadiens logo. And I'm a huge colorflow fan. Go figure. icon_smile.gif

If it is not already too late I would also suggest a chocolate transfer. I love doing those and I get a great result everytime.
Hockey rules!
