The body, the top half of the head and the baby are cake. My husband made the support system. We were lucky because we didn't mesuare the car and it fit with NO room to spare. The cake was 3 feet tall. There were also 7 extra babies that were used as center pieces. *** Here is some more information about the cake and how it was built... The support of the body is shaped like an 5x7 oval pan. I used 1 5x7 cake and 2 7x10 oval to carve the body. There was a support in the middle. The leg lenth was 12 inches and the neck was 5 inches from the top of the body to the bottom of the head, but i don't remember the total mesurement of the dowel. The bottom part of the head was 5 inches in diameter. The bottom half was styro and the top was carved from a half ball pan that is 6 inches. I hope this extra information helps...
