Fancy candy edible stickers

Abstract

An improved candy that uses icing papers in its manufacturing method to create pictures/designs that may be eaten or attached to a surface in the manner of a sticker. The process includes four distinct layers. The first, or base, layer is a polyester film with a food grade silicon (or vegetable oil, syrup or honey) coating printed thereon by silk screen or automatic coating machine to form a second layer. The third layer is candy paste (or icing) with a thickness of between 0.2 mm and 1.2 mm. The candy paste layer is easily detachable from the first and second layers. A fourth layer, made from edible colors, is printed on the candy paste layer by silk screen or pad printing.
