Can anyone tell me what an acetate cake collar is and where can they be obtained??
Thanks!

Acetate is a slightly rigid plastic. It is available in sheets, strips or rolls. It's cut to fit inside a cake ring, then the cake is built inside it. Used a lot for mousse cakes and things that are soft and need to be chilled to set.
Try Amazon, or BakeDeco.com
mrsmac888, the make of the cake you attached said she has an acetate mold with the patter imprinted in it. They sheets and rolls are just flat.
you can find plastic tablecloths that would have that kind of embossing on them and that might have been used? to achieve that effect -- after the cake is wrapped with the chocolate it could also be piped on there -- but the original looks like it came out of a mold

Could be something like these, but I don't see a pattern like that. I use these on molded chocolates. Looks like it's painted with colored cocoa butter or oil based color before spreading with chocolate.
She said she used an acetate model and painted it after it came out of the mold.
