You have to post it in the gallery first, which is unfortunate since it's not your cake, but that's the only way. Or copy and paste a link to the internet page where you've seen it.
Here is a good tutorial.
They used cookies but I think you can still see how it's done:
It looks to me like it's scrollwork piped in royal icing, left to dry and then painted. Nicholas Lodge has a technique that is suppose to save you a step when having to work with metallic scrollwork. I've not tried it but I believe he mixes some gold dust with powdered sugar..then adds enough vodka to make a paste ..and then adds some clear piping gel until you get to a piping consistency. Sorry I don't have the exact measurements on hand but I bet if you googled it you'd find it. HTH
