Cake - I used 9x13 cake pan

Size of the cake(length and width) depends on the length and width of the bottle.
For Example :
Finished Gumpaste Bottle is 10 inches long x 3 inches wide
Iced Cake should be minimum about : 11 to 12 inches long and 4 to 5 inches wide
Long Crate Panels (about 0.2 inch thick) : 11 to 12 inches long
Short Panels (about 0.2 inch thick) : 4 to 5 inches + 0.2+0.2 inch = 4.4 to 5.4 inches - approx. 4.5 to 5.5 inches
(0.4 inch accounts for the overlap you need on both sides)

Make sure the panels are same height, about 1 to 1 1/2 inches taller than the iced cake.
