Stars and Stripes Cake Porcelain Limoges Box

Stars and stripes decorate this festive cake, ready for a Fourth of July celebration. It is a hand-painted porcelain Limoges box made in Limoges, France, that brings American pride to a dessert themed shelf.

Frosted in Old Glory

Few desserts say Independence Day like a flag cake, the kind that turns up at backyard barbecues and family reunions every summer. This porcelain version keeps the celebration going all year, with the national colors painted across its surface.

Fireworks and Frosting

• Hand-painted porcelain from Limoges, France
• A cheerful fit for an Americana or patriotic collection
• Pairs with flags, eagles and Uncle Sam themed pieces

Red, White and Celebrated

It is a natural present for a July birthday, a new citizen, a veteran or a military family marking a homecoming. Display it on a mantel through the summer holidays, from Memorial Day to Labor Day, or keep it in a china cabinet with other patriotic pieces. Bakers who make a flag cake every year will especially appreciate the nod to their tradition.

Dessert themed boxes are a popular corner of Limoges collecting, and a patriotic cake brings something different to a lineup of pastries and pies.
