Having fun with wafer paper

I am pretty new to using wafer paper and I am having a lot of fun playing with it and using the edible ink and printer. As I play with different pictures etc. I will get them up on the website! You can always contact me if you are looking for something to be made.

The thing I like about it is that it doesn't matter what your decorating skills are.

You can add these onto cakes, cupcakes, cookies and chocolate! Sugar, gingerbread or even shortbread cookies are great bases to put wafer paper on. Royal icing that has hardened overnight is ideal to place your wafer image on. Some people say a little bit of light corn syrup to make it stick others say piping gel. Most of the people I know use a piping gel as there is less chance of the ink running. Other icing will work - just make sure it has a bit of a crust on it first of course fondant is also great!
There is no taste to it so you don't have to worry about it adding any flavour. You can get inspiration from, wrapping paper, wall paper, cupcake liners, pretty napkins - it's just endless. Even your own pictures can be used.
