My husband is a huge Grateful Dead fan. His birthday is Saturday and I wanted to make him a really cool cake. I did a search for Grateful Dead and Jerry Garcia but didn't see much. I've already done a Steal Your Face cake so didn't want to do that again. I really wanted to do a FBCT of Garcia, but can't seem to find a sketch of him that I can use. I've been searching the web. Any suggestions? TIA. Jodie

I don't know how detailed of a sketch you want of him! Did you try using the search engines by clicking on image first?
I don't know how else to help. Here is a link to something I found on Yahoo!

omg...my husband is!! In fact I had an idea one year....he has one of those green bears....and when the twins were born..I gave it to them icon_lol.gificon_lol.gificon_lol.gif

APPARENTLY that was a NO-NO!! icon_confused.gificon_twisted.gif ....so I planned on making him that bear with the stand up bear pan...maybe put a little tye-dye shirt on it...one that matches HIS! icon_redface.gificon_lol.gif

My first born son is still a Deadhead at 51. In fact his younger brother calls him "Trippy Trailmix" icon_biggrin.gif

How about a yellow bus with the dancing bears going around the outside?

I ended up with a migraine the day I was going to bake and decorate, so it ended up being put off a day and then I had to do it quickly. I ended up just doing 5 of the dancing bears and let the kids pick the colors. It turned out cute, not what I had in mind originally but considering...

It will be a little while before I can post pictures. I don't have a digital camera so have to drop my film off at the store. I do have a scanner, but I still need to figure out how to make my pictures small enough to download to CC.
