Flag cake

For a bbq over the summer I was asked to make a dessert. Now making a cake for a large group of people is not easy, nor is transporting it. I thus decided to make a traybake cake that I could assemble on location. I was insipired by a union jack cake I saw for the Queen's jubily and decided to make a flag cake. This was a Dutch/Japanese event and fortunately both countries have a cake friendly flag design! Here they are:

It was a simple vanilla/lemon sponge cake, with cream cheese icing and a variety of fruit to finish it off. The cake was lovely and fresh due to the lemon zest in it, which I also added a bit to the icing. The fruit on top really gave it a summery feel. It was a huge success!
