Okay the short story is i am making a cake for a special person and it has to look GREAT well i tried fbct but its to hot and it keeps melting i take the cake to him in 15 hrs. what i need has to stand up on the cake i used rice crispe treats to make my fbct stand up but its melting what do i do???? 
thanks i have melts but i wouldnt know how to put the people on with out tracing but i was going to try the color flow bt now another big problem i have no more black how can i make it???
I would definitely go w/ a color flow or a royal icing placque type of thing - you need to make your outlines with a little bit thicker royal icing and then thin the rest down to make the colors inside of the lines... give it a little time to dry imbetween doing the lines and then the colors. You may want to give each little color a little time to dry too. For example, if you have 5 areas that are yellow - do all of them and then let it dry for a little bit, then fill in your next colors.... I hope that makes sense! If not, there may be something on it on teh Wilton site - or you can look at decorating cookie sites that show you somewhat the same thing. Good luck! the candy melt thing might work too and might be a little faster - look up chocolate transfer here in the articles - you can also look in the forums for others input on those - as long as the back is fairly thick, I don't think you'll have any problems w/ it standing up - OR you could also add a little lollipop stick (if you have them around) or maybe a couple of toothpicks on the back when you are finished - attach w/ a little more melted candy - and then stick those into the cake and have the image "standing up" on the cake.... good luck!
A sugar cookie base w/design on top maybe would hold up better and you wouldnt have to wait for it to dry. You could use royal icing or buttercream icing. Just a thought for you time frame. Good Luck!
How big/heavy is the thing that needs to stand up? Is it one big thing, or several smaller things? Could it be done with cookies??? How much detail is there?
What colors do you have left to use? (RE: making black) Does the outline have to be black?
feel free to tell me what you think and how i can i make it better!!!!!
okay i need the guy and girl
For the guy and girl, I would definitely try a different technique like the candy melts or royal icing plaque. the rice krispie treats are just not neat enough looking.
On the cake itself, do you have more white icing? looks like you need another layer to cover the crumbs on the sides of the cake. Then I would add a border to the top and bottom.
If you change these things, I think it'll look great.

Sorry i ment to say i put a black band arouns the top of the cake and over the crumbs i am putting music notes it was like 4 am when i took that photo and i have to leave for work at oh 6 so i was running on 1/2 a deck
okay so i did the chock thing kind of i dd it like i did the fbct but with the choc.? will it be strong enought to stand on its own?
Thank you thanks you thank you i cant say thank you enough it turned out the way i wanted it to in the first place thatnks so much i took this photo before i added music notes to the cake but it looks a hell of a lot better now thanks 
That's a lot of work, I hope it was appreciated!! Nice job! The checkerboard pattern, whoa...what patience! 
i cant even tell how long this damn cake took between trying to do the people color flow (i made at lest six of them) then fbct then choclate (only took 3 try to get it right) and now he wont e-mail me back to give drections to his house so i guess it will go to the trash
