I found this picture and would like to know how the fire engine is made? Does anyone know how I could replicate this technique?

This looks like a Frozen Buttercream Transfer (FBCT) to me. There's a great tutorial on how to do this in the Articles section of Cake Central.

HTH!
Edited to add: Sorry for the duplicate post. My computer went nuts and I don't know why it posted twice.
It looks to me like a layered frozen butter cream transfer. Here is a link to a tutorial here at CC:

You can always PM the decorator and ask!
Welcome to CC!

looks like they layered fondant to make it more 3-dish. then outlined the last layer with edilbe black marker.
I think it is fondant too. It says "fondant accents" on the description.

totally agree.
I usually work with this kind of kids cakes, what I would do is find the shape you want, cut it in fondant, let it dry for a few ours and then paint it with food colors diluted in vodka, then outline with food markers. check my pics.
Thanks. I may try both ways and see which one comes out better. I'm new so I may not be doing something right b/c when I went to pm the decorator, I couldn't click on the button.
Nevermind! The button works now. Dunno why it didn't earlier???
