I would appreciate any instructions. I have a Jack Daniels bottle to make next week. I did p.m a couple of folks, never heard anything back. Would very much appreciate the help...thanks so much

Not sure if you are talking about the Sugar Beer Bottles, but here is an excellent post about it:

Thanks for replying archanac. I'm actually looking on how to do a cake bottle....the ones made out of cake standing up, 3D. I wasn't sure on the size of the cake pans. I assume you just stack and carve to form shape.

Anyone?

I just did a stand-up 3-D pepsi can cake . I used 4 -6" cakes (made it about 8" tall) . i found that if I went any smaller that the cake was very unstable . maybe you can use fondant for the neck of the bottle ? or use a couple more layers of cake and carve the neck ? sorry i cant be of more help .

two sites that might help:

you could use several layers of 8 inch square with rice krispies for the neck.
