I am looking for a printer to make cake and cookie stencils. Will this be good for that? I don't know what material is used to make cake and cookies.

This cuts fondant, sugar sheets, gum paste, and supposedly sugar cookie dough (never tried that) directly, mostly to be used as decorations. Its really not meant for making stencils (a regular cricut and some food-safe vinyl/cardboard would work for that). This machine works well for big broad shapes, but not particularly great for fine detail work on fondant and gum paste because of the soft nature of the materials.

I would only say, proceed at your own risk. This printer is primarily made for paper and photographic paper. There are larger printer/plotters from Epson and other brands that are rated for printing on canvas and other substrates...and, of course, they are much more expensive. If this is a rare, one- or two-off project, you may do better to find a local or online vendor that specializes in printing on fabric or canvas - there are hundreds of them listed on the web. That way you don't risk ruining your own printer. If you intend on printing on fabric routinely, you may want to invest or lease a much larger printer/plotter. But my recommendation would be to outsource it to a qualified vendor first who has the proper equipment.

Yes, it works just fine for both frosting and for cookies. Use the stiff frosting, if you are making it.

I think it would work great. I purchased it specifically for cake decorating.. I use mine to cut perfect even strips of fondant which has a dough like texture and it works perfectly every time!

Yes, it is easy to color, just takes mixing. I have never used it on cookies. I use fondant on cakes/cupcakes and then mainly just for decorations. I prefer good old butter cream icing for taste, but you can do so much with fondant as far as decorating. I do prefer the taste on this brand compared to others.

It doesn't actually print like a printer does...you can put markers in it and it will draw whatever you program it to draw on your computer. It does have a lot of good features. I have a cricut as well and it is limited in a lot of areas that this machine will do.

Agree with others ..it would not last .. Another way is pretty Involved and time consuming ....Use Oil Based Sharpies AFTER making your outline on a cup with a Cricut Machine .. After coloring in the name , remove the "cricut stencil" AFTER initial drying time ..Then put the Oven safe Coffee or OTHER cup into the Oven ..THEN turn on oven and heat up to around 350 for about 20 -30 minutes .... then turn off oven and let cool off completely..This "Cures" the ink and "might" be dishwasher safe or atleast hand wash safe ...

I mostly use parchment or rice paper I find at cake decorating store. I have also used tracing paper, normal copier paper, loose leaf paper found at many places from the Dollar store to office supply shops.

This printer was bought for a gift. I contacted the person and they said "yes" and you can not use for paper and food items at the same time. The printer is for edible projects only. I hope it helps.

I have only used the wafer paper. Extremely flexible for doing prints and cutouts. I love it.

I only use this machine for making tattoo stencils, but it is a carbon paper stencil. I don't know what you need for screen printing.

I printed a PDF file on photo paper, the results were excellent. I use the printer for pictures; I am very impressed with the quality. Not knowing what illustration and materials you are looking to print, it is hard to say this would be the printer for you.

I don't think so. This is basically carbon paper meant for paper crafts. There's probably baking specific products out there. Good luck!

Being styrofoam, you will have to get a styrofoam glue that doesn't have a solvent. You could try double sided tape. I used the.for a Art class and got the kids to etch pictures with a "skewer" stick. We then rolled ink over them and made prints. They were a win! pan and to make a print.
