A Look At The New Cricut Cake Basics Cartridges
Posted in Arts and Crafts on March 26th, 2010 by Jim – Comments OffCricut Cake Basics Cartridges are what you need to create the perfect decorations for your cakes, cupcakes or cookies. Use these cartridges in your Cricut Cake Personal Electronic Cutter to create beautiful, perfect designs.
The Electronic Cutter allows you to customize shapes and letters in gum paste for decorating your confections. The cartridges go in the Cricut Cutter and contain patterns for the machine to cut specific shapes and letters.
The Cricut Cartridges come with the purchase of the Electronic Cutter and there are a wide variety of designs, shapes, fonts and patterns on the cartridge giving you many options for decorating. Currently, only the Cake Basics cartridge is available, but Cricut has plans to create more in the future.
The Cricut Expression works quite simply. A flat sheet of gum paste is placed onto a cutting mat. The mat with the gum paste is then fed into the Cutter. The blade in the Cutter cuts out the word or shape you selected from the cartridge with perfect accuracy.
The accuracy and precision of this tool makes it ideal for both professional and home chefs. Creating perfectly hand-piped lettering with icing is a skill that can take years to perfect, but with the Cricut Cutter and Basics Cartridges, this is no longer a task too difficult for anyone at any skill level. Anyone would be impressed with the beautiful lettering and designs the Cricut can make.
Cricut goes the extra mile to make sure you have everything you need to get started on your project. They have available two sizes of cutting mats as well as replacement blades for the machine.
Cricut is a household name in the world of scrapbooking with their paper cutting machines, and now they will also be known for their advancements in cake decorating with the Cricut Cake Expression Machine and the Basics Cartridges.
