characters? I was just curious b/c I saw SugarShack's Dora cake today and it is adorable! I just wondered if that was legal to offer to a customer or if its not.

Unless you've paid a licensing fee it's my understanding that it would be illegal.

that's my understanding, also.

You can order them from decopac ... http://www.decopac.com/detail_44336__1-2-22.html .... who has the licensing to sell these images for use on cakes.

Okay, that is fine. How do you find a price on Decopac's site?

Thanks ladies!

You can't see the prices unless you're signed into your Customer Account. You have to sign up for an account...it takes 1 or 2 business days to do this, unless the process has been changed since I signed up a few years ago...

It is indeed illegal. Most people see it as no big deal because Disney has all this money and my little Beauty and the Beast edible image is no big deal. Those images are licensed and patented! This subject really winds me up so I'll stop here.
