SCRABBLE CAKE image

a pricey investment and both the ink refills and special icing paper aren't cheap but I have to say overall it was worth it.

Number Of Ingredients 7

- 9″ square cake
- iced edible ink printer
1 - a4 edible icing sheet
1-3 - a4 wafer paper sheets
- edible glue & brush
- modelling paste
- caramel ivory food colour paste

Steps:

  • I downloaded this image of a game board from google images, cropped it and printed it onto the A4 Edible Icing sheet. I then downloaded this image of Scrabble tiles and printed enough copies onto wafer paper to get the letters I needed. Wafer paper is cheaper than edible icing sheets and the letters don't need to be as crisp as the board. Once printed I trimmed the board print, carefully peeled off the backing and gently glued it to the top of the cake, smoothing out any air-bubbles. I then cut out the wafer paper letter tiles I needed.
  • I rolled out my caramel coloured modelling paste. Using the glue I stuck the wafer letters onto the smooth surface
  • When they'd dried a little bit I trimmed round them to make 3D tiles
  • I arranged the tiles into the desired message and piped round the edges of the Scrabble board to cover the joins. A few extra tiles on the board add to the 3D effect and any left-over wafer letters can be glued round the side
