Is it possible to use a sponge cake rather than a rich fruit cake?

Answers to your sugarcraft and cake decorating questions
Almost certainly. The only thing to be aware of is if the sponge is very light e.g. fatless sponge, the combined weight of sugarpaste and marzipan, can compress the cake resulting in a misshapen finish. Replace the marzipan with buttercream. If the cake is to be tiered remember to dowel the cake properly.* It sounds as if the filling you are using is too soft and the weight of the icing is forcing it to bulge out at the sides. This can also happen if too much filling is used.

Once my cake is marzipanned how long do I leave it until covering with sugarpaste icing?

Answers to your sugarcraft and cake decorating questions
For Madeira/Sponge type cakes you can ice it straight away. Avoid leaving for more than 24 hours or, when cutting, you may find the icing separates from the marzipan. For Royal Iced cakes, leave 24 hours but not much longer as, again, when cut, the icing may separate.*

Is a cake decorated with a flag drawn with icing a violation of the Flag Code?

Flag Rules and Regulations
There is nothing specific in the Flag Code [see below] regarding the use of the US flag as food. It does say It should not be ... printed or otherwise impressed on ... anything that is designed for temporary use and discard." The icing on a cake would generally be eaten, digested, and "discarded" in a most disrespectful way. We suggest that it is an inappropriate display of the flag.

Why use oasis? Why not use a sponge?

Cigar Smoker's FAQ
The many holes in oasis material mean a greater effective surface area. This means a smaller humidifier is able to do the same work as a larger one using other materials. Natural sponges are much more prone to contamination and should not be used. Good quality synthetic sponges are a reasonable alternative IMHO (although your credo might need to be a little larger than if you used oasis).

Can I freeze my cake?

Land O'Lakes: FAQs (Frequently asked questions)
To prepare an unfrosted cake for freezing, wrap in plastic food wrap, aluminum foil or place in a resealable plastic freezer bag. To prepare a frosted cake for freezing, place cake in freezer until frozen. Then wrap as directed above. Occasionally, moisture from the frosting may dampen the top of the cake which is why we recommend freezing cakes unfrosted. Hint: Buttercream frostings freeze better than fluffy frostings as buttercream holds its shape better.
