vanilla cake filled and iced with buttercream, fondant decorations. handpainted checkered flags, boarder is white fondant ribbon and then I placed each little square. I really need a pastry cutter so that I can get an accurate cut. I was disappointed that I wasn't able to get the squares to touch without leaving a gap. Overall, I'm happy with it. I forgot to add the dashed line to the "road" before I took pictures, so I took another picture of the topper after I added the lines.
