Instructions for Applying Edible Cake Toppers

Icing Sheet Cake Toppers

Recommended Surfaces:
Buttercream, fondant, ganache, or chocolate-covered cakes

Instructions:

  1. Ensure the cake is completely cooled and smoothly frosted. The surface should be dry to the touch.
  2. Carefully remove the icing sheet from its plastic backing by gently peeling it away.
  3. Position the topper over the cake and place it gently onto the surface, starting from one edge and lowering it evenly.
  4. Smooth lightly from the center outward using clean, dry hands to eliminate air bubbles.
  5. Allow the topper to settle for 10–15 minutes. The image will naturally adhere and blend into the frosting.

Important Notes:

  • Do not refrigerate the topper prior to application, as moisture may cause smudging.
  • For best results, apply shortly before serving.

 

Wafer Card Cake Toppers

Recommended Surfaces:
Fondant or firm buttercream

Instructions:

  1. Ensure the cake surface is smooth and mostly dry.
  2. If necessary, lightly brush the back of the wafer card with a minimal amount of water or edible glue. Avoid over-moistening.
  3. Carefully position the topper on the cake and gently press to secure.
  4. Allow the topper to dry and set naturally. Slight curling may occur initially and will flatten over time.

Important Notes:

  • Excess moisture can cause warping or softening.
  • Wafer card toppers will not fully blend into frosting as icing sheets do.


Storage & Handling Guidelines

  • Handle toppers with clean, dry hands only.
  • Avoid placing toppers in humid environments.
  • Once applied, do not refrigerate unless absolutely necessary.
