  • Laser cut edible decorating sheet and methods of manufacture
    Patent number: 11903403
    Abstract: An edible decoration is laser kiss cut from an edible decorating sheet by optically sensing at least one printed edible design on the edible decorating sheet relative to a laser cutting tool coordinate system and driving a laser along a circuit of cutting locations defined in the laser cutting tool coordinate system. The laser beam forms a separation channel by laser ablation of at least a portion of the edible decorating sheet at the cutting locations while leaving intact the non-adhesive releasable backing upon which the edible decorating sheet rests.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: November 8, 2019
    Date of Patent: February 20, 2024

  • LASER CUT EDIBLE DECORATING SHEET AND METHODS OF MANUFACTURE
    Publication number: 20150099043
    Abstract: An edible decoration is laser kiss cut from an edible decorating sheet by optically sensing at least one printed edible design on the edible decorating sheet relative to a laser cutting tool coordinate system and causing the laser beam to travel along a circuit of cutting locations defined in the laser cutting tool coordinate system to form a separation channel by laser ablation of at least a portion of the edible decorating sheet at the cutting locations while 304 leaving the releasable backing intact.
