I have been asked to make a Caillou cake.
I think the easiest way would be to trace the pattern on wax paper, then place the pattern/picture on the cake (after it has been frosted and smoothed) and use a seamstress pin and trace over the picture again, this time piercing the wax paper.
This may be a little late, but if you have the Bob the Builder pan he is very easy to convert into Caillou.
