I keep seeing things about SCAL and how you can use any picture with this program. I did a quick search and couldnt find anything on it. Is this something I can use with the Cake??

SCAL= Sure Cuts A Lot.

Yes you can use it with Cricut cake. Do a search on youtube, there are lots of tutorials on what you can do with SCAL. I downloaded the free trial and liked it so much I bought it right away.

You can also use Make The Cut which I think is more user friendly. There is also a free trial for it.
