A method of producing a ceramic component includes a) providing a main body having internal electrodes, outer edges of which are located on at least one first outer surface of the main body, b) contacting the first outer surface of the main body with a composition including an electrophoretically mobile insulating material and electrophoretically depositing the insulating material on outer edges of the internal electrodes on the first outer surface of the main body, and c) producing an insulating layer from the insulating material on the outer edges of the internal electrodes.
