Abstract

The procedure for applying photographic images, designs and text to articles made from chocolate consists of printing the images on a layer of marzipan, white chocolate or other edible surface with the aid of a printer employing edible colourings, and then placing the printed layer on the chocolate base. The image, transferred to the printer by a scanner or digital camera, can also be printed directly onto a chocolate or marzipan base, in which case no subsequent assembly is necessary.

Description

       

  Photographies sur chocolat.

  
La présente invention concerne l'utilisation de tablettes, batons, caraques ou pralines en chocolat comme support pour photographies, dessins ou schémas.

  
Les motifs (photographies, dessins, schémas, images, texte, ...) sont imprimés sur une feuille de massepain, de chocolat blanc ou autre support comestible à partir d'une imprimante utilisant des colorants alimentaires. Cette feuille est ensuite posée sur le support en chocolat. L'impression peut également se faire directement sur le support en chocolat ou sur une masse plus importante de massepain. Dans ces dernier cas, il n'y a pas d'assemblage nécessaire.

  
L'invention offre comme avantage la personnalisation et la décoration du chocolat par des images ou photographies en couleur ou noir/blanc directement sur le chocolat et non plus sur l'emballage ou le contenant.

  
Le document à reproduire (photograpies, images, dessins, ...) est scanné et ensuite imprimé au moyen d'une imprimante à colorant alimentaire sur une feuille de massepain ou autre matière comestible. L'assemblage avec le support en chocolat (tablettes, caraques, pralines,...) est réalisé par la pose de cette feuille avant refroidissement et durcissement du chocolat, ce qui assurera la fixation. Il est également possible de réaliser l'assemblage après durcissement du chocolat par l'emploi d'une fine couche de caramel ou de chocolat fondu qui, en refroidissant, assurera la fixation.

  
Le transfert de l'image vers l'imprimante peut se faire non seulement par l'intermédiaire du scanner mais aussi par voie électronique en cas de photographie numérique; le tout avec ou sans pilotage, retouche et découpe assistés par ordinateur.



  Chocolate photographs.

  
The present invention relates to the use of chocolate tablets, sticks, caraques or pralines as a support for photographs, drawings or diagrams.

  
The patterns (photographs, drawings, diagrams, images, text, ...) are printed on a sheet of marzipan, white chocolate or other edible medium from a printer using food colors. This sheet is then placed on the chocolate support. Printing can also be done directly on the chocolate support or on a larger mass of marzipan. In the latter case, there is no assembly required.

  
The invention offers as an advantage the personalization and decoration of chocolate by images or photographs in color or black / white directly on the chocolate and no longer on the packaging or the container.

  
The document to be reproduced (photographs, images, drawings, etc.) is scanned and then printed using a food coloring printer on a sheet of marzipan or other edible material. The assembly with the chocolate support (tablets, caraques, pralines, ...) is carried out by laying this sheet before cooling and hardening of the chocolate, which will ensure the fixing. It is also possible to carry out the assembly after hardening of the chocolate by the use of a thin layer of caramel or of melted chocolate which, by cooling, will ensure the fixing.

  
The transfer of the image to the printer can be done not only through the scanner but also electronically in the case of digital photography; all with or without piloting, retouching and cutting assisted by computer.

Claims (1)

Revendications: claims: L'emploi du produit même ( le chocolat ou le massepain) et non pas de son emballage ou contenant comme support d'impression: la photographie (ou image, dessin, schéma, texte, ...) est reproduite au moyen d'une imprimante couleur utilisant des colorants alimentaires directement sur le chocolat ou sur la feuille de massepain qui sera ensuite posée sur le support de chocolat avant refroidissement et solidification de ce dernier, ce qui assurera l'assemblage des différentes parties. The use of the product itself (chocolate or marzipan) and not of its packaging or container as a printing medium: the photograph (or image, drawing, diagram, text, ...) is reproduced by means of a color printer using food coloring directly on the chocolate or on the marzipan sheet which will then be placed on the chocolate support before cooling and solidification of the latter, which will ensure the assembly of the different parts.
