It is true you can do it
Purchase printer for your printing. Many edible ink/paper manufacturers list what printers work with their products.

Place food coloring-filled cartridges into your printer.

use a graphics program to create images for you to print.

Purchase edible frosting sheets online (see Resources). These companies also sell edible frosting sheets.

Insert the color-filled cartridge into your printer. The cartridges usually come with instructions if you have questions regarding their installation.

Place a frosting sheet into your printer following the instructions on the package. Usually the sheets are placed frosting side up for printing.

Allow the image to dry before handling.
