I have to have the beer can done by 2:00 and if I do FBCT or even the piping gel image onto cake, how do I reverse the image so when I flip it over, it's on the cake the right way????

Using parchment paper, trace your design. The turn the parchment paper over and put the piping gel (or FBCT) on the back. You can still see the lines if you outline dark enough. Then when you turn it over, it will be the right way. I have never done FBCT, but this is the way I do piping gel transfers.

If it's an image you are printing from your coputer you can reverse it before you print it then it will be right when you flip it.

Does your computer have "Paint" under "Accessories"? Send your image to "Paint" and select the "Image" button and then select "Flip/Rotate". It will reverse the image for you. Then you can copy and paste that reversed image into a program that will allow you to increase or decrease the image to the size you need. I use Microsoft Publisher.
