All licensed character shaped cake pans,candy molds and cookie cutters are for consumer home
use only. Stores/shops cannot make cakes, cookies or candies from licensed products
and sell them to consumers. These "mold making items" are strictly prohibited for any type of commerciaal use since
the licensor has neither the method to control the quality of the reproduction of the character nor the ability to earn royalties
on sales of the "finished" product. This applies to both baked and craft-type produucts.
Free-hand or copied character designs cannot be drawn or iced on top of a cake,
cuupcakes or cookies and sold for any type of commercial purpose. Once again, the licensor cannot control thee quality and
is not earning a royalty on the product created around their characters.
Licensed pans cannot be rented to consumers by stores since
the licensor is not earning a royalty from the transaction.
Generally,
creating any type of image that looks like a licensed character that is sold for commercial purposes is
prohibited unless there is a specific licensing agreement with the licensor for that product and royalties are paid each time
the product is sold.
