Settings

Cut: 85 [Power], 2 [Speed], 2000 [Hz], 6* passes

Engrave: 60 [Power], 30 [Speed], 500 [Hz], 1 pass

*6 passes may seem excessive, but it is required to laser cut the gingerbread without burning. 

Tip

Use cardboard underneath the gingerbread when laser cutting ginger bread.

Important Note

The gingerbread is not recommended for consumption after laser cutting, mainly due to its slightly burnt taste. Many edible items are safe to laser mark without altering the taste, Contact us to find out how you can safely mark and engrave food with a Trotec laser.

With thanks to FabLab London for the guide.
