I will be making a cake for a cousin of mine & it is for tomorrow. My time ran out. ![]()
I will be making a beer bottled shape cake & my plan was to print an edible image & place it on top of fondant. My problem is that the print out doesnt come out very clear. The small words look a bit blurry. Any suggestions? All the pics I found on line are small so once I enlarge it, it looks blurry. Im printing the image on a 1/4 sheet.
got a bottle of the real stuff handy?
if yes (even if you do have to make a shopping run....hint hint!) ....
soak off the label GENTLY.
while still wet place on a white paper towel.
pat dry and leave on paper towel for ease of handling
take it to your scanner.
set resolution for at least 300 dpi
put paper towel w/ label on it in scanner
scan.
save as a JPG (jpeg) at highest quality setting.
now can import into Publisher or any other software as an image and stretch to full size with little to no loss of image quality at this point.
print at BEST setting --- and here's the gotchas!
most inkjet type printers really can't do tiny-tiny (6pt and smaller) type clearly
and icing sheets aren't paper --- and will not be able to show the super tiny print as well as paper would
Hi all this information is wonderful. I dont have a printer that had edible ink, what other alternatives do I have? I would love to invest in a printer so I can print out labels and such, can you suggest a good printer? I'm going to attempt making a corona bottle cake in august and need the lable. Any help would be great.
yeah but the only prob there is that the corona does not have a wrapper on it.
haha. Okay so then what do you do to get the lettering? since the bottle is glass and has the letters imprinted on it, what suggestions are out there so create that image? Stencil on fondant?

I think you should buy a www.coronaextra.co.uk bucket as well.
