I take it you mean just the words "the fresh prince....."    I would print out a screen capture on paper in order to make a sugar sheet or colorflow or fzn b'cream transfer.   Or find the font or one close to it on-line then do the same.  Back the sugar sheet w/a very thin plaque of fondant.  I guess on 2nd thought color flow wouldn't work if you need to put it on the side of a round  cake :(

Not sure what your idea is   Print the whole logo?   On what?   Regular paper or sugar sheet?  If regular paper then what — trace it on what?   Explain more I’m just not getting your thoughts:)

A fzn b’cream transfer isn’t hard   Work on plastic wrap being sure it is flat/smooth   Start with the black printed words & outline then fill w/green & let set up/dry a bit then carefully  spread the pink over it all    Freeze    While that is frzing make the white plaque  — can be fondant or fzn    I’d just rub the edge w/a Q tip dipped in black  (or is that blue?)  after If it is fzn   Then just put the two together   — the words on top of the white    Making them on plastic makes it easy to remove them w/o braking   Slide it to the edge of the table  & peel  the plastic down — not real fast  — releasing the fzn transfer   Yes you do have to work / handle them quickly  but they are not real fragile when fzn long enough

One batch of this should do it:  2 cups EA butter & shortening; 2 generous pinches salt; 2 Tablespoons flavoring; 2 pounds sugar     Mix the butter & shortening together for 5 minuets; add 1/3 of the sugar & salt mixed together & beat another 5 minuets; add the flavoring & another 1/3  sugar mixing 5 minuets; add remaining sugar &  beat 5-10 minuets until it is perfectly smooth & very creamy    This is non-crusting   If you want crusting reduce the shortening  to 1 cup  OR EA s&b by 1/2 cup    There is NO liquid used

Probably make it crusting as that would be better for the fzn transfer     Also I’ve been thinking that after the piping of words—the 1st step & before adding the pink to fz it — Maybe just a 1/2 hr so when adding the pink you won’t smear the words

Being placed on a 8” cake the completed transfer will be just about 2&1/2”—3 “  not big at all

I would trace it off onto fondant and paint it, including the background.

Melted chocolate   If you don’t have any then use a slightly thickened buttercream   Coat the entire Back of the fondant plaque    & hold for a bit

To make edible paint, mix petal dusts with vodka or cocoa butter.
