DTM Print offers solutions for direct-to-food printing and the production of food labels in any size and shape. Those solutions are perfect to product branded and personalised items, enabling caterers, hotels and event agencies to broaden their service portfolio. DTM Print will showcase the Eddie Edible Ink Printer alongside the LX610e Color Label Printer at the HRC in Excel London, UK, 17 - 19 March 2025.

Personalised chocolate and cookies are in high-demand these days – for weddings, anniversaries, corporate hospitality and other events. Those products stand out and offer that little ‘extra’. With Eddie, a direct-to-food printer with edible ink, it is very easy to print onto cookies, sweets, marshmallows, white chocolate and a wide range of baked goods. 

As Eddie, the Edible Ink Printer, prints full-colour photos, logos, designs and text directly onto the surface of baked goods and confectionery, there is no need for using icing sheets; no aftertaste and no added texture which would decrease the quality of the food. A highly professional look and great detail are realised, even on curved and uneven surfaces. Eddie turns treats into real eye-catchers and opens up new profits by offering branded and bespoke products. 

The direct-to-food printer is manufactured by Primera Technology and distributed in the EMEA region by DTM Print. Eddie has a small footprint (only ~ 32 x 47 cm) and weighs about 11 kg. Eddie can print in manual and automatic mode, depending on the size and shape of the food. You can also choose between using the included carousel or select from a large variety of DTM Trays that are designed especially for Eddie by DTM Print. 

Eddie was designed to be used in food processing environments to fulfil all hygienic standards. Stainless steel housing, easy to clean components and certified ink with EU and FDA approvals make Eddie the safest direct-to-food printer in its class. Eddie Edible Ink Printer just recently received the Kosher Pareve certification, which adds to the list of industry-leading certifications as Eddie’s printhead and filling equipment is cGMP certified, the ink-filling cleanroom is FDA-approved and the printer itself has been certified by NSF. The edible ink is also Halal certified and suitable for vegans.

Personalised sweets and bake goods are a highlight on their own. But the packaging should be an eye-catcher too. Packaging is at least as important as the wonderful and tasty items in it. Labels are an important part of any packaging and have a strong impact on the purchasing process of consumers as they first draw attention to a product and contain plenty of information that can influence consumers to buy a product. 

Besides the food printer Eddie DTM Print offers a range of different colour label printers. One of them is the LX610e Color Label Printer with the unique feature to print and cut any label shape with just one device in seconds. Instead of printing on standard A4 label sheets the LX610e not only prints full-colour labels, but this desktop label printer/plotter also produces any shape and customised labels with the built-in digital die-cutting mechanism. 

Professional print businesses, label converters, advertising agencies, graphic design shops and other print providers will find the LX610e invaluable for producing accurate label samples, prototypes and short runs for client approval before ordering expensive hard-tooled or flexible dies. Small businesses can print their own short runs of hundreds or a few thousand custom labels, without incurring delays and die costs, while continuing to send their longer runs to label production shops. That provides them even more value and flexibility.

The LX610e comes with the easy-to-use Windows and Mac compatible software. Besides an intuitive software the label printer is eco-friendly and sustainable with very low energy consumption, low weight by using less material, non-toxic ink supplies as well as 100% recyclable components. In addition, all DTM Print devices purchased in the EU, the UK and in EFTA countries, get warranty of up to 3 years.

When Eddie-printed sweets are combined with brilliant and full-colour labels produced by the LX610e they become a highlight and stand out. Small businesses can actually increase their sales through innovative packaging and labelling. It also allows manufacturers of all sizes to offer private label goods in smaller quantities.
