+### Faker.fake()
+
+Faker contains a super useful generator method `Faker.fake` for combining faker API methods using a mustache string format.
+
+**Example:**
+
+```js
+console.log(
+ faker.fake('{{name.lastName}}, {{name.firstName}} {{name.suffix}}')
+);
+```
+
+This will interpolate the format string with the value of methods `name.lastName()`, `name.firstName()`, and `name.suffix()`
