The company’s revenue is generated by the sale of cake decorations, edible décor products, licensed character merchandise, bakery supplies, and decorating equipment to professional bakeries, supermarket bakeries, distributors, and retailers. Additional revenue is derived from PhotoCake® edible image solutions, related consumables and hardware, and digital bakery platforms such as CelebrationIQ®.
