I have an expression. Does the cake cartridge cut just paper, not interested in making cakes with it.

Yes it’s so true you can use your expression machine to do the same as the cricut cake…so you don’t have to buy another machine. If you don’t like certain kinds of fondants try the homemade marshmallow fondant (works great)

So did anyone figure out if you can use the expression machine to cut out the cake designs, or do you have to buy the cake machine?

the “fondant sheets” taste awful….. and my recipe is too SOFT to cut — it tears it up!

Gum Paste– my recipe seems to tear – no matter how THIN it is rolled. I do not care for the WILTON premix.

HELP — I’m gonna practice some more, but having more difficulties than progress at this point.

I saw on one of the cake challenge shows that the expression does work for cakes. I would suggest the “cake” cutting tools and mat as everything has to be “food grade” Any gum paste and fondant should work as consistency is the same.

I love my cricut original, and love to make cakes…All the U tube videos etc say you can’t use the C Cake for cut paper. What about vise versa? Why can’t I get a cake/fondant blade for the cricut I have, after all they DO sell the half size (12 x 6″) food safe mats! What are these for if you cant use them in the smaller machine?!?!….suspicious if you ask me. (like I need to go out and buy every new machine that comes out.)

The Cricut Cake is made from FDA approved food safe parts, whereas the Expression is not. You can certainly do the same with the Expression, as the cartridges work in both machines, and you can do it with the Expression mats (you just have to thoroughly clean the sticky stuff off the Expression mats). Cuttingedgecakeart.com blog has a very good comparison post about the two, testing out different materials and giving pros and cons about using the expression for food. HTH!
