I recently used this method to make a monogram for a wedding cake. It turned out beautiful! I saved this tutorial in my playlist for future reference. Thank you so much for sharing this technique!
Hi Daniela, yes you can use this technique to transfer an image to fondant. Make sure your cake is cold (not frozen) so the pressure doesn't damage the fondant.
Thank you so much. I am new to painting on fondant/sugarpaste/royal icing. This video illustrated perfectly what to do and although I have to practice I will use your technique as it is the best I have seen. :0)
Suzi Sukamonastir graphite is non toxic and while it's not something I would search out to eat, it won't harm you. I always recommend the monogram be removed before serving.
Can I use the same technique to transfer an image to fondant? I want to make a dr seuss cake for my daughter's bday and wanted to make a cat in the hat fondant...Thanks
Hi Bonnie, graphite is non-toxic. If you are concerned about your clients ingesting it, you can always let the bride know the monogram plaque is to be removed before serving. Thank you!

Thank you Minette for this very helpful tutorial. I loved the monogram you used and was wondering where one might find these gorgeous designs.

It is ok for the customer to consume the graphite that has rubbed off onto the cookie?
Thank you 1ekaba! I think food coloring markers is a great idea and would definitely work. Thanks for the suggestion!
Thank you! Great idea with the cookies! I'll have to give it a try.
Glad you found the video helpful!
Thank you for letting me know. Give it a try now!
silverteacakes, I'm so glad you found the tutorial helpful! Thank you for watching.
Great video! Always wondered how they did this. Also, can you use a food coloring marker instead of paintbrush? thanks for the video!!
Thanks Minette!
Thank you Victoria n' Albert! We use microsoft word...its' one the fonts from the word program.
You are very welcome LaMeeka!
Graphite....not for me! Is there another way which is more food friendly?
Todaraba, you can always use gel color diluted with lemon extract and paint it free handed.

What type of painting brushes are the best to use? I have tried different brands/prices, but have been having the worst luck with bristles shedding..
Nicole, I like to use a small, thin round brush for monograms. Thank you for watching!
Oh dear unable to watch it as you have disallowed on mobiles which unfortunately includes the ipad and galaxy tab :-(
I also would like to know if graphite is food safe?

I don't know that graphite is food safe as it's not a food product. I do know that it is non-toxic. hth
