Edible Inks launching at 123 Refills

123 Refills is launching the Inkedibles ™ brand edible ink cartridges this month (October 2011). Inkedibles ™ has a full line of edible inks for Canon and Epson inkjet printers, and offers its edible inks in 100ml ink refill bottles and in edible ink cartridges for Canon PGI-5 / CLI-8 / PGI-220 / CLI-221 / PGI-225 / CLI-226.

How do edible inks work?
Edible inks are used by cake decorators to print edible images that can be placed onto cakes. Any image / photo can be printed onto edible paper with an inkjet printer using edible ink (also referred to as eatable ink or ink frosting). The edible ink runs through the ink cartridges (refillable, auto-resettable brand new compatible ink cartridges that hold edible ink), and onto the edible paper (frosting sheets). The frosting sheets with the printed edible image are then placed directly onto frosting covered cakes, and that's all there is to it! Your cakes look like they have personalized photos printed right onto them!

Coming soon... ink you can eat!

Coming soon... inks you can eat, or also referred to as edible inks.  Why on earth would you want to eat your inks?  Well, for printing digital images onto your cakes! For example, you will be able to print that photo of your son or daughter to put onto their birthday cake.  Personalize cakes, cupcakes, or other baked goodies by simply printing your desired image onto a sheet of edible paper (yes, you can eat the paper too which are also known as frosting sheets), and apply the printed frosting sheet to your cake.  All this, on a simple sub $100 inkjet printer!

We have been working long and hard to test and bring to market a comprehensive solution for edible inks and edible paper (frosting sheets) and will be releasing it soon.

You will be able to print your cakes and eat them too!
