The Viral "Cake on Fire" Trend, Made Easy.

Stop struggling with printer settings and paper types. The Ink4Cakes Custom Burn-Away Kit is the only professionally calibrated set designed specifically for this trend. We take your two images and print them on specific paper grades with precise ink densities to ensure a perfect performance.

What You Get in the Kit:

Layer 1 (The Reveal): Your hidden image printed in High-Definition on our Supreme Icing Sheet. It stays vibrant and sharp.
Layer 2 (The Burn): Your top image printed in "Draft Density" on Standard Wafer Paper. We intentionally use lighter ink saturation to ensure the paper stays dry and ignites instantly.

Pre-Cut vs. DIY: Which should you choose?

Standard Option: You receive the images on full 8.5"x11" sheets. You will need to cut them out yourself using clean, dry scissors.

Pre-Cut Upgrade (+$3.99): RECOMMENDED. We use our commercial precision cutters to cut your circles perfectly for you. You receive ready-to-use discs that you can place directly on your cake.

IMPORTANT UPLOAD TIP:
For the "Burn Image" (Top Layer), please avoid solid dark backgrounds (like a full black square). Heavy ink acts as a fire retardant. For the best burn, use images with white or transparent backgrounds.

Burn Away Pickup reveal 16th birthday cake.

A+ Product was easy to order, instructions were clear, price was reasonable, shipping was very timely, no issues at all. The concept of the product is so fun everyone loved watching my granddaughter's reaction when her 16th Birthday gift of a bright red pickup was revealed under the burning image.

Saved the day.

Everything ordered arrived on time and was exactly what I sent them. Much better than the last company I tried to use out of California which sent me the wrong images twice.

Marilyn Manson burn away image

Both images looked perfect and the burn away image performed perfectly to reveal the edible image underneath. Would definitely recommend and will buy from again.

Great quality for affordable price

I ordered this product for my younger sisters birthday. The quality was exactly as advertised, and came in perfect condition. It worked exaclty as expected. I ordered 3 day shipping on Sunday and it arrived by Wednesday, which is impressive because I live in the city where sometimes things get delayed up to a week. I did order thermal protection because it was a very hot week in the 90s, and there was no damage at all. I would definitely re-order from this company! Lastly, I even was worried I wouldn’t get it on time because the tracking information was not updating, and they responded to my email within a day.

Race Car Burn Away Cake

Your website couldn’t be any more easy to use! I had a question and called your company and got a great response immediately. The products worked phenomenally! You made one eight-year-old boy very happy! Attached are pictures of the two different layers of the burn away cookie cake. I have a video, but I couldn’t download it. Let me know if you’d like me to send it in another format.

Great images

Loved the burn away set - it worked very well. Everything looked great and the burn away effect was impressive. Just make sure you space away the toppers well. One border is too close to the image, so I recommend a double for extra height

Q: Hi there! I am looking to get about 60 of these printed for individual 3" cakes. Is that possible? Or can I order printed wafer paper and printed icing sheets separately? Thanks!

Asked by: Mandy Murphy - 3/31/2024

A: Hi Mandy,

The best way to order this would be to design as many of the 3" sized images on a 8.5x11 canvas as you can fit (should be 6 total per page). Change the quantity to 10 to get a total of 60 images on each paper type, then cut them out manually upon receiving them (the smallest precut size we offer is 5").
