hmmm, you could always just try it. You could try and make your FBCT look like the stamp. I say just play around with it and see if you like it. Otherwise you could just use the color scheme with some paw prints on it, if you are afraid trying to duplicate the bear wouldn't turn out.
yeah i was thinking about maybe doing that if trying a fbct doesn't turn out.
my initial thought was the sides be blue with paw prints then on the top do a border of just the brownish gold color then do the bear part on that and just tie little bows with the same ribbon. for the smash cake i might just do all blue with paw prints.
okay here is an idea, after the buttercream has gotten good and crusted, could you take the stamps that they used (maybe whoever made the invites would loan them to you) and stamp them lightly onto the cake, then take a toothpick with royal icing dyed to those colors and outline the stamps? It would be time consuming, but I am guessing that it would work, or you could try painting the frosting on with a very fine brush. Make a sample cake and try out different techniques and see if you like any of them.
try that dot, at least you got some time to play around with it and see what works.
How about drawing on fondant with edible pens! You can incorperate the ribbon and paw prints some how on the sides of the cake. Maybe a gingham bow if its for a female. If you need buttercream for the cake make a royal icing (picture square) and drawing on it then lay it on the cake. Prop it up with sugar cubes so it won't go soft on you! Good luck!
take a actual copy of the invite to the copy shop have it enlarged to the size you need and then call a larger bakery that does edible images and use that and accent with the other features of the invite. Hope this helps.
Sam's club might help with this. You may just want the center image and then frost differently i did tnis with some of my stuff and found that the image came out a little smaller. momvarden
Sorry about that. The sugar cubes are used to prop the royal icing image or the fondant up off the surface of the cake. The buttercream icing will cause the royal icing image to break down. I'm not too sure about the fondant though. The sugar cubes will make the image appear to be floating off your cake a bit, unless you push them into your cake just until they are slightly raised out of the buttercream. I hope this clears up your question. If not, let me know. ![]()

Chefdot -
My apologies. I responded to your PM to me...and it just sits in my outbox. Will NOT go anywhere. I just now realized it when I went to check if a different message to someone else had been delivered!
Icing embroidery is done by outlining a design with a single line of piping - maybe a 5 tip or so. Then, you go back and, with a flat, stiff artist brush, you brush the icing toward the center of the shape. The goal is not to fill the shape with the brushed icing...you're just creating brush strokes. Just one single, firm stroke per every brushwidth of the piped line. You end up with something that looks like crewel embroidery. It's very pretty.
