Fruit Rolls Cake Pennant Banner, Delineate Your Dwelling

As my little guy’s birthday starts to near we go through the typical run down of what kind of party celebration he wants.  We only do big friend parties on the fives (when they turn 5, 10 + 15).  The other birthdays are still special and fun but more low key at home with family.  The first thing he always seems to mention is CAKE. 

I have a great tip for creating that special cake that is both very delicious and also a show stopper!  Today I am sharing how to make a Welch’s Fruit Rolls Cake Pennant Banner.

My kids love unrolling the great taste of Welch’s Fruit Rolls and I love that fruit is the first ingredient and that they offer 100% of the daily value of Vitamin C and 25% of the daily value of Vitamins A & E, so I decided that incorporating the tasty treat into my son’s birthday cake would be the perfect idea!

How do I make an edible Cake Pennant Banner?

First, “Unroll the Fun” of Welch’s Fruit Rolls onto your cutting board.  Based on the size of your cake, determine how big you want your individual pennant pieces to be.  Then carefully cut out triangles to size.  I also cut out two longer ribbon pieces to add interest.

To add a little something extra to the main pennant pieces, you can also cut out narrow stripes and punch out small circles!

Tie a knot around each straw using the baker’s twine.  Using a small dab of frosting, secure each of your pennant pieces to the baker’s twine banner.

I also cut out a long skinny piece of Welch’s Fruit Rolls and added a colorful stripe along the top edge of the cake!

  1. This cake and the banner are too precious! I love the idea of making the decorations out of yummy edible treats. How old is your little man turning this year?

      He is 6 years old! I can’t believe I have a 6 and 7 year old now… my babies are growing up so fast. 😉

  2. Such a smart idea to use these on the cake! So cute!
