Just saw a local competitor's cake, they used a quarterfoil impression mat and it looks awesome - I though I've seen them all (CK, GSA, other supply site that cannot be named) and I've never seen this one.  I must have it.  Any idea where they got it?  I PM'd my friend that did the cake and she confirmed that it's an impression mat of some sort, she has no idea where the owners got it though.

AThat looks like a kitchen back splash. You can make your own impression mat. Get a tile from lowes or home Depot and some amazing mold putty from the lobby of hobbies. Mix the putty as directed and press into the tile. Voilà! Homemade impression mat!

It's not a kitchen back splash, and it's not homemade.  But it does look like what was sold on eBay, anyone know where to actually buy it now?

 

Thanks!

AThe lobby of hobbies apparently, as much as it pains me to send them any business

That might be it!  I don't have a Hobby Lobby here so I the local hunt continues - I'll check Michaels.  Bummer it's not on Amazon.

AI didn't say it was a back splash. I just said it looks like one. When you can't find what you're looking for what wrong with a little improv?

AIt was available to order online with a 40% off coupon I think, it looks like they have some other patterns that might be interesting.
