I’ve been to a small handful of particularly bougie birthday parties, where they have custom-made cakes with photorealistic images of the birthday child on the top.
It’s quite a sight to see when the cake is just sitting there; once they start serving, it becomes a bit less so, with people getting a slice of cake with the kid’s eye or chin over the icing.
But I’m more concerned with how the hell they manage to accomplish this feat in the first place. How do they make a photorealistic portrait of a human being out of icing?

I think they just use inks made of food coloring and print them on rice paper, then apply to cake. nothing too terribly fancy/complicated
