Sure. I baked a 12×15 then cut & stacked it. I kind of winged it because I first tried do do 3 pieces of 5" but it wasn’t tall enough so I trimmed to 3" and used a total of four 2" layers. In the end I think it was 11.5 L x 3 D x 8 H. I did have some scrap.
I carved the sides into a V to get the folded bag look. Then I just did panels of fondant on top and sides. I left a little “lip” of red just over the top edge. The logo was cut out of gumpaste. The tissue was fondant rolled paper thin cut into rough triangles and just folded & arranged on top. I used paper towels to hold some of them up until they dried. The handles were gumpaste with BBQ skewers in them just shoved in the cake.
This litterally was a last minute cake Easter Morning to give to my mom as a late birthday cake since our whole family was together. I think the total carving/decorating time was about 1 1/2 hours. Overall it was a fairly large cake and pretty easy.
I hope this makes sense. Good luck!
