Does anyone, who may be in the candy industry, know where I might find a chocolate screen printing machine?

I am in the food industry and would like to focus on screen printing on chocolate. I have been looking at industrial confectionary companies, no luck as of yet. I would also like some literature on the subject. I do know of making transfers, but I need something for volume production. Jean Pierre Wybauw has a book that touches on the subject, but I do not knot how in-depth. A web-site would be very helpful. Thank-you!

Questions 8-14 deal with screen printing with chocolate. I'm not sure why these chocolate experts believe it's best to screen print a chocolate design onto an acetate film, then transfer it onto the final item, rather than screen printing directly onto the final item. Perhaps it has something to do with working with a rather inflexible silk screen in a frame, the size and shape of the final item, and the possibly curved placement of the chocolate design. It may not be feasible to automate the placement, but manufacturing the acetate transfers should be rather easily accomplished with standard silk screening procedures and methods.

There's lots of screen printing setups for sale on ebay. Making your own silk screens is really interesting and easy, and there's ebay sellers with the emulsion and silk frames.

Sounds like you have a yummy idea!
