A method of forming chocolate mold having an image printed thereon. The method includes the steps of forming a piece of edible paper, releasably securing a first side of the edible paper to a backing sheet, printing an image on a second side of the edible paper and securing the edible paper to the chocolate mold. The image is printed on the edible paper by a printer using food coloring loaded into a cartridge of the printer. The step of securing the edible paper to the chocolate mold may include placing the edible paper within a mold with the image facing a side of the mold, pouring chocolate into the mold and atop the edible paper, allowing the chocolate poured into the mold to harden and removing the hardened chocolate and edible paper from the mold. The hardening of the chocolate forms a bond between the chocolate and the edible paper it is poured atop. Alternatively, the step of securing the edible paper to the chocolate mold may include pouring chocolate into a mold, allowing the chocolate poured into the mold to harden, removing the hardened chocolate from the mold and securing the edible paper to a desired position on the hardened chocolate. In this instance, the edible paper is secured to the hardened chocolate with an edible adhesive such as gum arabic.
