Go to sites like eHow and Youtube - they usually have helpful videos :)

I've never tried one of those cakes but my friend does them all the time for her kids and says it is really easy. I bought one of those Tupperware piping things and I must say it makes piping so much easier than using a bag and they way you hold it your hand is very steady.

It's actually quite tricky. You need to get the icing the right consistancy, know how to write and draw really well, and have stacks of different colours. You may want to consider getting an Icing topper to go on the cake (with a picture of Bob) on it. or you can get icing pre-made from Countdown. It comes in tubes that will squeeze as you draw.
