Military Flag Cake

Military Flag Cake on Cake Central

Made for my great nephew, he is an Apache helicopter pilot in the Army. This was his leaving for Iraq party. Edible image photos in gumpaste braid frames. Fondant flag stencilled with airbrush. First flag I ever tried and made many mistakes. Learned from them though.

This is so beautiful.. Thank your nephew for what he is doing for his country, and you deserve thanks for obviously supporting him. My husband served in Iraq for 18 months , and it was so hard on all of us. Thank you again

Thank you. I just keep hoping they will end this in the Middle east and all of our service people will be home safely, and soon.

Beautiful cake! These always bring a tear to my eyes. My son is also in the Army but in charge of all Military Honors funerals. Really depressing.

Thanks Vicky. I can imagine how sad that would be.

Thank you. My granddaughters husband just got back from his second tour of Iraq, (Marines) doesn't have to go again. Thank goodness.

Thank you, but it has the three foot rule, if you look closeup there are flaws.
