The edible printing industry has certainly been on a dramatic
rise in the recent few years with edible products not seen are mere
novelties anymore but essential decorations whether it be a cake, cookie
or on ice-cream.
There is now an increasing demand for organisations and
businesses of all sizes to embrace these deliciously appealing show
stoppers that are not only used to make a statement but promote a
company’s image.
So it’s no wonder that printing images and photos on edible sheets has become a very profitable operation indeed.
Whether
it’s an extension of an existing business or a pure edible operation
from home, where does one look to finding the best ‘edible’ printing kit
or system? And if they do find a supplier, what quality are the
products they are receiving and what level of support arrives with the
package?
Unlike other larger markets like the Uk and the US,
countries like Australia and New Zealand lack any major edible support
organisation or distributor that can cater to their needs not just with
equipment, but software, tech support and that after sales support that
many cake suppliers who sell certain edible products don’t offer.
Ok I get it, but what do you look for when purchase an edible ink printer system?
Well
firstly what you need to look for is a distributor who knows the market
extremely well and isn’t just selling a variety of products. That way
they have the know-how to explain what the best printer to use is and if
a printer is already owned then what kind of supplies are required.
Very
importantly ask where the edible ink and sheets are made and whether
they are high quality. If they say yes then ask them why! If they give a
bland, ‘Im not sure’ answer then you can be sure that support
afterwards is out the door. You’ll then need to make sure that the
edible supplier can provide you with software and template support and
anything extra you may need because an edible ink printing system isn’t
going to design, run and print itself!
On top of all the above
there needs to be wholesome and knowledgeable level of after sales
support that can address even the most technical of questions. A
distributor needs to not only sell their products like suppliers do but
know them inside out as they usually played a part in their
manufacturing.
So the next time you look for edible ink printers
please make sure all the required due diligence is done first before
taking the step as purchasing just any edible package that says edible
may cause serious harm not just to your printing quality but also to
your business in general and to your potential customers who will
ultimately ingest your printed products.
