It's so great to be back, and just in time to make some cupcakes for the 4th of July! We always grill out and do a few fireworks here at home and it always ends up being a great time with the family! In this weeks edition I'm going to show you how to make the little Flag, but if you'd like to make the hat too you can go here. All you need to do is just use white and blue for the hat and trim and use a food safe marker for the stripes. Now for the flag here's what you'll need:
-Rolling pin
-Knife
-Fine tip paintbrush (or toothpick)
-2" circle cookie cutter (i used a 1 3/4" , but I'd recommend going up to the 2")
-White gel food coloring
-White, red, and blue fondant
-Knife
-Fine tip paintbrush (or toothpick)
-2" circle cookie cutter (i used a 1 3/4" , but I'd recommend going up to the 2")
-White gel food coloring
-White, red, and blue fondant
-Divide the ball of white in half and roll out one half to about 1/8".
-Take the circle cutter and cut out a disc. Set aside.
-Roll out the remaining white, blue, and red to 1/8".
-Cut stripes from the red and white and cut a square from the blue.
-Alternate the red and white, starting with red. (4 red and 3 white)
-Cut the ends off to make it square.
-Place blue square in the corner to use as a guide and cut the top 3 stripes.
-Remove the excess stripes and put the blue in their place.
-With a little water attatch to circle (i definitely think a 2" circle would be better!!)
-Taking fine tip paintbrush (or toothpick), add in as many dots as you can fit comfortably.
-I was able to fit 20 on here. Obviously its not an accurate flag, but I still think people will get the gist :D
