Eddie edible ink printer prints directly on
confectionery Eddie Edible Ink Printer prints full-colour photos, logos, designs and text directly onto the surface of baked goods and confectionery. As announced by DTM Print, international OEM and solution provider for specialty printing systems, this FDA and EU approved food printer is now capable of printing on even taller items including donuts, jumbo marshmallows, bars, bagels and mini cakes up to 50.8 mm tall using its new Eddie Platform Kit. Using the included carousel, Eddie prints a dozen
89 mm cookies or other similar-sized items in just two minutes and therefore making the process of printing onto cookies, candy, white chocolate, biscuits, macarons fast and easy. Printed cookies or other sweet treats will be dry and ready for sale after printing. Printed images are bright and vibrant. For these reasons and more, Eddie is a professional, edible ink printer that provides bakers and chefs alike with a fast and effi cient way to enhance food. Using the included carousel, Eddie holds up to twelve
items from 63.5 mm to 110 mm in diameter with a maximum thickness of 19 mm. To print on taller, special shaped confections or multiple items in one run Eddie’s manual feeding option combined with DTM Trays extends the width to 120 mm and allows thicker items with a maximum height of 27 mm. A wide selection of acrylic food trays including custom-shaped trays are designed especially for Eddie by DTM Print. And now the third option is to use the Eddie Platform Kit
for items up to 50.8 mm high and up to 114 mm wide. Once installed the kit replaces the standard platform. Due to direct printing, there is no strange fi lm or
aftertaste, which would decrease the quality of the food. The edible ink meets all EU and FDA standards for use as a food additive, while the ink cartridge itself meets cGMP standards and the entire manufacturing and cartridge fi lling processes are FDA-compliant and cGMP certifi ed. The Eddie Platform Kit sells for € 89.95 (MSRP) and is available now from DTM Print or through authorised DTM Print partners in Europe, Middle East and Africa.
