We here at Inkcups Now like to share some interesting news about our customers every once and a while. Today we received an email from Wanda, one of our customers that had purchased our PromoJET edible image printer. Here is what she had to say:

“Montgomery Gentry was in town over the weekend and I had ‘ins’ with the caterer. We gave them a tray of cookies with their photos and it was a huge hit. We also made 2 large ones for them to autograph, Montgomery didn’t show his face, but Gentry was gracious enough to take time for a picture and an autograph. A first maybe?”

I would say it was a first! Thanks Wanda for this great story!

We printed on chocolate with the PromoJET flatbed inkjet printer with edible ink. The edible ink is safe to consume and looks great on chocolate.

Printing on chocolate was easy. First, we did a little preheating to the point where the chocolates are almost melting so the ink can infuse with the chocolate and not smear off. The PromoJET flatbed inkjet printer printed a whole tray of these chocolates in under 4 minutes! After printing on the chocolates, we placed them in the refrigerator to further harden the chocolates.

The PromoJET edible inkjet printer can print on all kinds of treats such as cookies, cupcakes, mints, and cakes!

Wanda W. is one of Inkcups Now customers who recently got a PromoJET inkjet printer for Edible products. She visited our Headquarters in Danvers, MA for a training session (which comes free with any equipment purchase) and went back to Illinois to resume making delicious cookies and cakes, now with the new machine. I say “delicious” because Wanda left a cake here at Inkcups, after practicing in decorating it - and it was absolutely yummy! Here is a piece from an email that she sent to Mike Bissel a few days ago:

“Yesterday when I arrived the first phone call I received was, “Is the manager available”. You know, that’s never good. It was the customer who got the 200 logo cookies and a cake. To my surprise they absolutely loved the cookies and cake and needed to call and let me know. They had a ribbon cutting ceremony for Camelot School (they had directors in from over the whole United States and these directors could not believe the how good the cookies looked and tasted). The colors were so bright on the cookies etc. Again, PromoJET is #1!!!! So possibly when another school opens elsewhere, maybe we’ll get the order?????
Anyway, the ovens are waiting for me… and THANKS again.”

Take a look at what we were able to print on today!

Using the PromoJET flatbed inkjet printer with edible ink, we were able to print these great looking images right on these cookies! Just a few weeks ago we posted another blog about printing directly onto cookies and we got a lot of people asking us if the PromoJET could print on uneven cookies. Well here is your answer.

The PromoJET solvent inkjet printer can print on noticeably uneven surfaces up to five inches in height! We used the built in halogen heat lamp and our edible ink, and the printer took care of the rest. We were able to fit about 10-12 cookies in the printer at once (2-3 inches in diameter) and the whole printing process took no longer than 3 minutes!

Some may say we have gone too far with this one (or at least we think we did.)

We have decided to merge the two sweetest things in our office together: Bonaventure, our controller, and cookies. The result was the B-Cookies. We just used the PromoJET flatbed inkjet printer along with our tasty edible ink and presto! We have a cookie that tastes great with a friendly face on it. OK, I will admit, it is a little weird to eat a cookie making that face at me, but it still tastes awesome! Decorate any cookies with virtually any image with the PromoJET edible inkjet printer!

Decorating cakes just got a whole lot easier!

Print directly onto cake frosting using the PromoJET flatbed inkjet printer with edible ink. Print virtually any image/photo/design directly to frosting.

Older methods were tedious work for the printer, they first had to print the image onto special paper, then transfer the paper onto the cake and then use heat to transfer the ink to the frosting. Printing direct to frosting with the PromoJET edible ink printer saves time and money, not to mention its also very tasty!

Take a look at these cookies! By using the PromoJET inkjet printer with edible ink, cookies not only taste good, but look amazing!

Edible printing is a snap! We were able to fit 12 cookies about 2-3 inches in diameter into the PromoJET inkjet printer. We printed images on the cookies using the halogen heat lamp and 100% FDA approved edible ink. The images came out as clear and sharp as a photograph!
