Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use edible food pens on buttercream?

Edible pens work best on dry, firm surfaces like fondant, royal icing and dried gum paste. On buttercream, moisture can cause the ink to bleed. For writing on buttercream, allow the surface to crust slightly first or use a piping bag with a fine round tip for lettering.

How do I stop the tips from drying out?

Store pens horizontally with caps firmly closed. If a tip has dried out, dip it briefly in a small amount of water to reactivate the ink. Keep pens in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
