Printed cakes are common products sold in cake shops. Prints very often appear on birthday cakes, as well as for weddings, communions, or business events. Edible papers are popularly used to make such cakes. But the real revolution on the market are confectionery plotters that allow to create unique decorations right on the product without any intermediate elements.

What does direct printing on products give?

Confectionery plotters are devices which print directly on almost every surface. Printing on gingerbread, cookies or macarons is perfect for producing personalized gifts, promotional items or special occasion decorations. Without a doubt, direct printing on cakes enjoys the greatest interest. It is worth paying attention to the fact that with a confectionery plotter we can decorate almost every surface covering a cake. What is more, the properties of a particular substrate influence the appearance of a graphic, giving it a different character. Food gel, mirror glaze or ganache make the printed image shiny. On the other hand, on sugar paste, sugar suede or powdered sugar the decoration will be matte. The color of the base is mixed with the color of the graphic, therefore the best effects will be obtained on light products. Of course, only the combination of printing with hand-made decorations will give your products a special expression.

How to earn more in less time?

The traditional making of cakes with a wafer print involves many steps that make the confectionery production process more difficult. Starting from printing the artwork and cutting it out to the complicated application of the wafer on the cake and coating it with gel. Additionally, customers are unhappy with the feeling of eating the paper and the difficulty in cutting such a cake. Direct printing on a plotter shortens this process to a minimum, and the whole decoration related to the printing is done by the machine for us! It increases the speed of decorating the cakes, the printout is cheaper, and what is most important, we obtain better quality of the applied graphics. All this generates considerable savings and in an easy way contributes to the increase of confectionery production, and in a perspective also to the development and increase of company’s earnings. In addition, it increases the satisfaction of customers who get their dream product with any decoration without affecting the taste.
