Custom Printed Edible Cake Wrap Strips
Transform any cake into a showstopping centerpiece. Simply send us your photo — we print it on food-safe frosting sheets and deliver pre-cut strips ready to apply.
Custom printed edible cake wrap strips are thin, flexible frosting sheets printed with your chosen image, design, or photo and cut to size — designed to wrap seamlessly around the sides of your cake. They're made from 100% food-safe, FDA-compliant edible inks and frosting sheets, meaning every color, every detail, and every layer is completely safe to eat.
Unlike traditional fondant wraps or hand-painted designs, our edible cake wraps deliver photographic-quality prints in vivid, true-to-life color — making them perfect for birthdays, weddings, quinceañeras, baby showers, graduations, anniversaries, and everything in between. No special cake decorating skills required.
Choose the size and quantity of strips that best fits your cake. Complete your purchase on our website — you don't need to upload your image during checkout.
After placing your order, you'll receive an order confirmation email. Simply reply to that email and attach your photo(s) along with any specific instructions (colors, layout preferences, cropping notes, etc.).
Our team prints your image on premium food-safe frosting sheets using professional-grade edible ink printers. Strips arrive pre-cut and ready to use — no trimming needed.
Gently peel the backing and press the strip onto a freshly iced buttercream or fondant cake. The strip softens and adheres beautifully within minutes.
♥ Please send your photos as you would like them printed — we do not add text or modify your images before printing.
♥ For best results, email a clear, high-resolution JPEG or PNG file. Avoid screenshots, links, or low-quality mobile photos, as these will result in a blurry print.
♥ The better your image quality, the sharper and more vibrant your final wrap will look!
All strips are 10 inches long. Choose the height and quantity that best fits your cake tier.
Every cake shape has a different circumference. Use these simple formulas to estimate the total strip length you need — then add a little extra to account for the icing thickness.
🔵 Round Cake
Example: An 8″ round cake → 8 × 3.14 = ~25 inches of wrap needed. That's about 3 strips of 10″ each.
⬛ Square or Rectangle Cake
Example: A 9″×13″ sheet cake → 9+13+9+13 = 44 inches needed. That's about 5 strips of 10″ each.
- Apply strips to a chilled cake with a smooth, fresh layer of buttercream or fondant — the strip adheres best to a slightly tacky surface.
- Work quickly and smoothly. Press the strip gently from one end to the other to avoid air bubbles.
- If your cake has a hard ganache or fully crusted buttercream, lightly brush the surface with a tiny amount of water or piping gel to help the strip stick.
- For multi-strip cakes, slightly overlap the edges (about ¼ inch) where strips meet so there are no visible gaps.
- Do not apply strips to wet or sweating cakes — the colors may bleed. Allow condensation to dry before applying.
- Once applied, use the back of a spoon or a clean offset spatula to gently smooth out any air pockets.
- Strips can be applied up to 24–48 hours before the event and stored loosely covered in the refrigerator.
- For fondant-covered cakes, lightly brush the fondant with water or edible glue where the strip will sit.
- File format: JPEG (.jpg) or PNG (.png) preferred. No screenshots, no links, no Google Drive files without download access.
- Resolution: At least 300 DPI (dots per inch) at print size for sharp, vibrant results. Minimum 1000px on the shortest side.
- Send your image exactly as you want it printed — we do not add text, stickers, filters, or edits to your photos before printing.
- If you have multiple panels or want a different image on each strip, send each image labeled clearly (e.g., "Strip 1 – family photo," "Strip 2 – floral background").
- Dark or heavily filtered images may appear differently when printed on frosting sheets. Bright, well-lit photos give the best results.
- We do not provide proofs before printing unless specifically requested, so please double-check your image before sending.
- Material: Premium frosting sheet (icing sheet) printed with FDA-approved, food-safe edible inks. Completely safe to eat.
- Pre-Cut: All strips arrive pre-cut to your ordered dimensions — no scissors or trimming required.
- Flavor: Frosting sheets have a very mild, neutral sweetness that blends seamlessly with your cake's frosting.
- Shelf life: Edible sheets have a shelf life of up to 12 months when stored properly in the original sealed packaging, away from heat and humidity.
- Storage: Store flat, sealed in the original packaging at room temperature. Do not refrigerate before use, as moisture can affect the sheet.
- Dietary: Frosting sheets are generally gluten-free. Please contact us if you have specific allergen concerns before ordering.
- Not for wafer paper: These strips are printed on frosting/icing sheets, which are thicker and more opaque than wafer paper — ideal for vivid, photographic prints on the sides of cakes.
