I don't use shaped cake pans as much anymore. Drawing the pictures is more personal

I totally agree about drawing the pictures are more personal. I love to free hand. I have tried tinkerbell and she is hard. Do you have any advice you would like to share. My daughter has fell in love with tinkerbell and that is what I am doing for her birthday at the end of the month. [email protected]

I use a line drawing of the size needed; let the icing crust over and cut out the outer edge and lay on the cake. press, and then cut off each piece and press, like a pattern

Help! I'm new to this and very confused! Could you re-explain how you did tinkerbell? You did an amazing job!! Thanks!

example: take a picture from a coloring book. make a copy, cut out the picture. when the icing (I usually use Betty Crocker whipped deluxe) has had time to crust over( about three to four hours), I place the picture on the cake, lightly press the outer edges. Lift off and start cutting off outer sections one at a time and then press again to make the details. Sometimes I have more than one copy so if I make a mistake or the icing sticks I have backup. Usually with faces I have to freehand.

love the cake, very beautiful. I used to do the cutting paper patterns thing too, but I discovered piping gel. wonderful to use as a transfer.
