This cake was made for Memorial Day, but the flag could be used for 4th of July. The flag is piped in buttercream. The flag pole is fondant which I tried to cover with Wilton shimmer dust before I knew about luster dust!! The roses are buttercream and the bows are fondant.
I printed one out from the web, then cut out just the stripes and laid it on the cake and traced it with a toothpick. Then I freehanded the stripes after having the outline.
Your flag is absolutely perfect! Is it a template or free hand?
