Okay...so this method is WAY better than doing the drawing straight on the cake. I made the image last night and it's resting happily in the freezer (checked it out this morning).

When I put it on the cake and it thaws, will condensation or anthing form or something? I guess I'm worried about when it comes to room temp. Do I put it on the cake just before the party starts?

This is my first time doing this method and it looks so good (peaked at it this morning) that I don't want to ruin it! Please let me know.

Thanks,
Sheri

You might get some condensation but if you don't touch it the wetness will dry.
Just place it on the cake while you're decorating instead of waiting until right before the party.

Thanks so much! I iced the cake last night to let it crust over but will put it on with some icing as glue. I guess you learn as you go. Thanks again!

You don't have to glue it down. As it thaws it will stick to the cake. It is like doing the border or any other decorations after the cake has crusted over.
