The wafer cake images don’t have a backing image and are easy to apply. Depending on what icing is on your cake can vary on how you apply the edible cake image. If you have a buttercream frosting, you apply your edible image directly to a smooth surface of the cake icing. We recommend using white icing for the best results, as the rice paper is quite translucent. Let the frosting dry a bit before putting the rice paper on, as too much moisture can cause it to collapse and the ink to run. Working from the centre outwards, smooth any bubbles that may exist, try to use a gentle patting motion rather than pressing down on the image. If you have a fondant icing, the application for the cake image is a different process. 

Edible cake images don’t have a backing sheet and are very easy to apply. Lightly moisten the back of the wafer paper. Try not to over-wet the paper as it can curl. Once the surface or the wafer is wet, gently place it on your sweet cake.
