Flag Cake Smackdown: THE ENTRIES
Here are the TOP FLAG CAKE ENTRIES:
tesco:
Two layers of Velvet Red cake, one Classic White with blueberry filling and buttercream icing between, all rolled fondant icing pieced together -one by one and an edible print of the Declaration. I made a pattern for the stars out of sheet metal and cut them out of fondant as well.
snickrsnack:
Amber:
What? The American flag isn't pink-ish, white and bright blue?!
That's Ghirardelli white chocolate chips, ladies. Nothing but the best. And the cupcakes next to it are courtesy of my hubby. He says they are fireworks.
Carrisa:
Do you all need to know what ingredients I used? If so I'll say it's a red velvet cake with a frosting I made myself out of Cool Whip, Cream Cheese, Vanilla, and Powdered Sugar.
I used cherries from a can of cherry pie filling and washed them off so they wouldn't be messy. And then mini marshmallows. I used fondant to make the blue patch and the stars.
My coworkers absolutely loved it.
RockStarMommy:
Marisue:
As I hate Jello, my second thought was to "decorate" the inside of the cake as well.
I dyed white cake mix red or blue and only used five tubs of white frosting.
It tasted fairly normal and each piece had about a gazillion grams of sugar.
Although it looks like I had a 7 years old helping me, I did it all :>
The winner? Listen today to ChickChat Radio to find out!! : )
