Decorate Your Cupcakes With Cricut Cake!

This new Cricut machine is specifically designed for decorating cakes, cupcakes, cookies, and other confections. According to the demo it can also cut other foods of about the same consistency as fondant, such as tortillas, and some cheeses if they're sliced thin enough. That opens up tons of possibilities for fun food!

Cricut Cake is specially designed with food-safe materials for cake decorating and food needs. It has food-safe tools and accessories. It doesn't have the cracks and crevices that the original Cricut has. Everything is sealed off so food can't get into it.

I've been trolling the search results and the message boards to find answers to some of the questions I have about Cricut Cake. I thought I'd post some of them here as I find them.

1. Can you use Cricut Expression cartridges for Cricut Cake? Yes it appears you can use the same cartridges, but the cartridges that are created specifically for Cricut Cake will work better, because they're more basic, with fewer edges and points, which will be better for cutting fondant and gumpaste. With that said, you can use the regular Cricut cartridges, especially if you pick out basic designs and shapes.

2. Can you use Cricut Design Studio with the new Cricut Cake? Yes you can! This is one great selling point for me! I love creating my own designs to cut out for scrapbooking, and I would love to be able to cut out my own designs with the Cricut Cake, so I was super excited to hear you can use the software.
