This cake is about 20" wide and about 22" high. I entered this in a contest at our mall for a fundraising even for CMN. Unfortunately it was disqualified b/c I didn't read the rules right, and the cake board was over the size regulation. I thought the cake had to be under 24" and it was the cake board. My cake board was 27", bummer deal. However, got to talk with Norm Davis and he said hands down that it would have won, so I still feel good about the cake and I love it. The cake board is colored sugar, dotted with red pixie stix dust. TFL
