Customer Spotlight: How Edible Printing Helped a Home Baker Grow Her Cake Business

🧁 Customer Spotlight: How One Home Baker Turned a Hobby Into a Thriving Cake Business

When it comes to edible printing, success starts with the right tools—and a little creativity. At Betters®, we love seeing our customers use edible printers to unlock their full potential. Today, we’re excited to share the story of Anna R., a home baker from Texas who turned her passion for cakes into a profitable side business using our edible printer bundle.

Meet Anna: From Weekend Baker to Cake Artist

Anna always loved baking for family events and holidays, but she never imagined her hobby could grow into something bigger. That changed when she discovered edible image printing. “I saw a cake online with a custom photo topper and thought—why not try it myself?” she recalls.

After some research, she found Betters® and ordered our Canon edible printer bundle. Within a week, she was printing high-quality cake toppers using edible ink and frosting sheets from the comfort of her own kitchen.

Starting Small, Dreaming Big

Anna began by offering custom printed cake toppers to friends and local parents via Facebook groups. Birthdays, baby showers, graduations—her edible images quickly became a hit. "I never thought people would love it this much. Everyone wanted personalized cakes with their kids’ photos or favorite cartoon characters."

Using our refillable edible ink sets, Anna kept costs low while still offering vibrant, food-safe designs. “The quality was amazing,” she says. “And being able to refill the ink saved me so much money compared to other brands.”

Her Top Tips for Beginners

Now with over 200 custom cakes sold, Anna shares these tips for aspiring edible printing entrepreneurs:

• Practice before you sell: “Try different frosting sheets and print settings to find what works for you.”

• Keep your printer clean: Regular maintenance prevents clogging and keeps prints sharp.

• Invest in good edible ink: “I only use Betters® edible ink because it’s reliable and safe.”

Why She Recommends Betters®

Anna credits Betters® with helping her scale her small business:

“The printer bundle came with everything I needed to start. The support team was helpful, and I love how easy it is to reorder edible ink refill sets.”

She now prints custom designs for cakes, cookies, and even cupcakes—and has begun taking wholesale orders from local bakeries.

Whether you’re a hobbyist or looking to build a baking business, edible printing opens doors to endless creativity. Just like Anna, you can turn your passion into a profit with the right tools and guidance.
