Cuz I'm crafty I tell ya :)

No.....it's a site I use for ideas when I bake cakes and cookies for parties and events.  I wish I lived closer....I'd love to make this cake for Jayson!  I bet if you copy, paste and print, take it too a bakery they would be glad to do this for you.  I know it's done all the time where I live.  I have people bring me pictures of cakes the want me to make.

i like that one even mre... im pretty crafty.. but what do you use to ice it so that its so smooth? and stack it so it wont fall... i actually like the idea of cow print all over... and then put little people farm people on top lol

You can use fondant icing...you roll it out and lay it over...some people don't like the taste...so it is kind of a personal choice to use....otherwise if you use regular buttercream frosting you can boil some water and use a metal icing knife and smooth it, re dip the knife and keep going until it is all smooth.  My mom used to make cakes a lot and people seem to prefer the taste of the butter cream vs fondant.  A lot of people like the smooth look of fondant for wedding cakes, but my mom could get it just as smooth with ho****er and knife (and a little tine smoothing it out).  The buttercream may be better for kids...as far as taste.  Hope that helps at least a little.

It is fondant.  Most fondant taste pretty blah!  I however make my own fondant homemade and it tastes like buttercream!  I use wooden dowel rods and or heavy plastic tubes to stack my cakes.  They wont fall the way I stack them.  I smooth my buttercream with a bench scraper and a viva brand paper towel or sometimes I use my fondant smoother over the paper towel.  I never do a cake the same way twice.  I do what works for that specific cake.
