Military Retirement

Military Retirement on Cake Central

Not my best work. Border was uneven and I didn't let my flag dry before placing it on the cake. It broke and I had to repair several places by painting royal over the cracks while on the cake.

Thank you both! My writing is nice but when I try to put it on a cake it always turns out crappy to me. So, I started writing the message on wax paper and then flipping it over and piping it in royal icing. After it dries I place the paper on the cake (writing face down) and press the imprint into the cake and then use BC to follow the imprint. That is the only way I can get it centered on the cake properly.

Good job - thanks for tip on writing - I have decent penmanship also but it's hard to do on a cake. I'll try your method. Regards, P.T.
