put pictures on a cake
It's interesting:"The bride and groom have asked me to make special mention of the bridesmaids who have done so much to help the day run so smoothly. They were charming and decorative and I know gave Linda all the support she needed. In fact you could say they added the finishing touch to a fairy tale wedding."
Putting your own pictures on a custom cake can make a great gift for a friend or relative or add to the fun of child's birthday party. With the right picture and a little planning, your custom cake will be ready to go on the day of the event.

Instructions
1
Call local cake bakeries to find one that does custom cake picture printing. Many bakeries have printers that print pictures with edible ink that can then be inserted onto any cake. Ask the bakery what size of picture you need to bring in.
2
Select the right picture for your custom cake. You will want to choose a simple image with a few simple details. Because the printers which print the edible ink have low resolution, simple pictures work best. Also, consider using light colors that will look more appealing to eat. Most bakeries will allow you to bring in digital pictures of prints, which can be scanned.
3
Crop the picture so that it has one central focus with little background. Background detail will not show up well in the picture and will detract from the subject of the picture on the custom cake.
4
Decide if you want text included on the picture. Many bakeries will add a name or short phrase on top of your picture if you desire.
5
Order a custom edible ink picture online and have it mailed to you. Edible ink can be preserved in a plastic bag and will not require refrigeration until unsealed. You can then place the picture directly on a cake of your choice. Go to AllAboutIceCream.com and click on "Picture Cakes" for details on ordering a custom picture.
