I am making a cake with an american flag on it that will be standing up. Is there anyway to make the flag pole edible? And if not, and I use a lollipop stick or a wooden skewer, how do I get the gumpaste to adhere to it. I have tried before and the flag must be to heavy or something because it rips off of the pole. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
That's a great idea. Cut your cake board out of 1/2" foamcore then purchase a flag - sharpen the end in a pencil sharpener. Wash the flag stick off well with antiseptic soap, insert into a straw cut to the level of the top of the cake. Insert the pointed end of the stick (bottom) into the cake and down through the foamcore.
