How to Transfer an Image to Fondant/Gum Paste without an Edible Printer

If you bake and decorate cakes for your family and friends most likely you don’t have an edible printer or an inkjet printer with edible ink and edible image transfer sheets / wafer paper. In this video, I’ll teach you how to transfer an image to fondant/gum paste without an edible printer. You will be hand painting (with some support) so the image you choose can be as detailed as you think your steady hands can handle. I chose a simple image of a lady for my Lady with a Hat cake I made for my birthday. You can transfer the image to gum paste as it dries out faster. If you don’t have gum paste, you can also use regular fondant mixed with a bit of Tylose or CMC powder if you want your decorations to hold their shape and dry out faster. If not, regular fondant works too. Link to detailed written tutorial - https://roxyskitchen.com/htransfer-im...
