Fondant covered 1/2 ball for each hat with 6" underneath to lift them up a little more. This was one of my favorite cakes to do. Next time I will allow the brims to set for at least four days instead of two though...they had their flaws but I was still happy with them.
I just wanted to put a note in to let you all know that JulieBugg2000 helped me with this!! Thank you JulieBugg!!!
I love these! Go Red Sox!
