Font Question
I know that this is a little off topic but thought that the people here
would have plenty of great ideas. I am looking for help finding a font that can be cut out for a stencil. I make cakes and tarts that sometimes I want to use powdered sugar or ground chocolate instead of icing for the message. I create the message on the computer and print it out on a thin piece of plastic then cut out the letters to make the stencil. I have experimented with different fonts but each has a different problem. Has anyone found a font that would be good to outline letters? thanks.

Do you mean you need a thicker font so that it can be turned into a stencil?

The fonts that I have tried have problems that the center of letters fall out.
