I did this on my Strawberry Shortcake cake in my gallery of pictures. Is that the look you are looking for? Let me know and I will post the directions.

I am horrible at FBCT so this is a nice alternative that is pretty easy to do.

Here are the instructions that TRIPLETMOM sent me and I am passing on for this post:

"First make an outline with piping gell on wax paper and then flip that onto the cake so I have an outline. After that I go over the gel with black buttercream making sure that there are no gaps. I then make the run-in sugar mix (off hand I think it's 1 cup powdered sugar, 1-2 (maybe even 3) Tblsp of clear corn syrup and then enough water to make it flow but NOT runny). You only need small amounts so i colour as I go and use snack bags instead of piping bags. Saves on clean up afterwards. That's about it. It is fun to and looks fantastic. make sure you have a sturdy board underneath your cake because if it bends even a little bit youwill cracks in the image."

You may need to play around with the amount of each ingredient to get the correct consistency. Have fun and let me know how it goes. Send pictures.

Happy Baking!
