Hi, and I'm sorry if there is already a Forum out there on this topic. icon_redface.gif When I went searching, there were about 10,000 matches because the search engin pulled both "Food" and "Writer" out of the mix. My question is this:
What brand does anyone who knows anything recommend as a good food writer? I need something with which to print fairly small lettering... do food writers work for that? Do they have a firm tip? Thanks for any help with this. Obviously, I've never used them... icon_smile.gif

IMO the Americolor are the best. they have a very fine tip.
I'm not sure how small you might be able to write w/it. but it does write very nicely. GL

Thanks so much for the advice. thumbs_up.gif I found (2) black Americolors (brand new) on ebay for 3.99 and ordered them. Excellent! Now, I plan to get the whole array of colors!

Blessings,
Wendy

Kat's right, Americolor food pens are hands-down the best, and I've tried three or four different brands. You're going to be very happy with them.

Parable: I used it to write on tiny little gumpaste disks... worked beautifully. If you need to see it, email me and I'll send you a pix.

Blessings,
