I agree with all ove the above. Only thing I'd add is that instead of stars I'd use MMF or smooth buttercream. I just did a soccer ball this weekend and used MMF. It looked pretty real. You're your own worst critic. I'm sure the kids loved it!

Everything came out great!! maybe if you use a bigger tip for the small detail on the soccer ball? Great job, love the design... mind if I use it for a baseball cake?

by all means yes...makes me feel better knowing that it isn't "too" ugly... :lol: be sure to post a picture when and if you do

Overall, I think it's a great cake. But since you asked....I would have made the soccer ball design (you know, the shapes on it) smaller so you could tell more that it was a soccer ball, and I think either the middle cake should have been smaller to sit on the bottom cake without hanging over, or the bottom cake should have been larger to fit the middle cake better. Make sense? But I still think you did terrific overall! :)

I agree with potatocakes. I would have made to soccer ball white and black to break up the color scheme. I like the grass! Good job!

I also think that either the middle needed to be smaller or the bottom larger ... I love the ribbon that says Soccer -- that's so cool!!
