Has anyone used this machine to decorate their cakes???
It retails here for over $600 !!!!!

I have one and like it. I am not sure where you are, but mine wasen't that expensive. It was $250. I do not like the fondant sheets that they sell, I use my own and roll out. It is nice that you can use the cartridges for the other cricuts with this one. There is a girl at work I borrow from, otherwise they are a little pricy. I use it most for putting the name on the cake. I do think it will last me a long time and look at it as an investment. Good luck in deciding!

i love my cricut cake! a lot of my pics have cakes done using the cricut, and if carts are problem buy a program like sure cuts a lot! i use it and its awesome =D

I love mine and use Make The Cut software so I don't have to buy the expensive cartridges. Check out Linda McClure's blogspot for step by step instructions. It will save you a lot of aggrivation.
