Pop Up Scenery Cakes are a great option for those on a budget

Today we will learn about chocolate transfers. Basically, this is when we print an image on to a transfer sheet and spread melted chocolate on the printed side. When the chocolate sets, we remove the transfer sheet, leaving the chocolate with an image on it. The chocolate print is usually placed laying flat on a cake, but I will place it standing up. I call this concept, Pop Up Scenery Cakes. These cakes mimic the joy of reading a pop up book. Please enjoy this free Yeners Cakes Tips video.

    Hello Mr.Yener,
    thank you this budget saving tip – it is a wonderful and impressive solution for a tight budget. I was researching the internet for acetate edible prints but they do just icing and wafer prints. Could you please give me a clue on what can be used for this chocolate transfer? Or what printer you use for this chocolate transfer. Again, the printers do just wafers and icing prints.
    thank you very much for your answer
