HOW TO DECORATE MERINGUE AND MACARONS IN 3 MINUTES? SEE HOW EASY IT IS!
Meringues are made of whipped egg whites with sugar, dried at low temperature. Macarons are small cookies soft inside and crunchy outside, filled with a variety of cream. Both products are brilliant in taste. But how to make them look equally special? The ideal solution is to use edible printing. It allows you to quickly create dream decorations on these sugar products.
Macaroons painted with edible ink
Edible printing is mainly associated with placing fairy tale graphics on cakes for children. Nothing could be further from the truth! With this tool you can create beautiful and elegant decorations also on exclusive products. A good example are macarons. Printed ornaments, floral patterns and inscriptions are perfect as decoration for a sweet table, decorative elements for a cake or personalized gift for the other half. What’s more, you can paint such graphics yourself and transfer them to the computer – and then duplicate them many times.
Traditional meringue in a new edition
Although meringue is an ideal printing substrate it is a little more difficult to print on than on macarons. When printing directly onto products it is important to have a flat surface. The smoother it is the prettier the print will be! What can such decorations be used for? There are many possibilities. Meringue lollipops with printed fairy tale characters are perfect as products for the youngest. Meringue cakes with inscriptions can be a special gift for birthdays, and personalized meringue cakes with inscriptions perfectly fit into the wedding table decorations.
The use of printouts in cake decorations
Ready-to-use prints on macarons or meringues are perfect as decorative elements of artistic cakes. Macarons with inscriptions can replace the traditional inscription on the cake, and meringue lollipops with the photo of the birthday person will perfectly fit into the structure of the birthday cake. Each print can be decorated with hand-made accessories, which gives additional uniqueness to the finished products. There are so many ideas and the only limit is your imagination!
How to print with edible ink on macarons and meringues?
An office food printer will not be able to print on such a product. If you have a wafer printer, all you can do is make a printout on sugar paper, cut it out and glue it onto the macaroon/meringue. The disadvantages of such a solution are time-consuming work and the effect of eating the paper disrupting the delicate structure of the meringue cake. An excellent tool for creating such printed decorations is a confectionery plotter. This device paints directly on products. The plotter IMAGO FALCO can accommodate more than 40 macarons at a time, and decorating all of them takes up to 3 minutes!
