Baseball Diamond
I just finished this cake today, for a baseball team party. I was so nervous delivering it, I was sure the baseball would roll off - even though I dowelled it like crazy. Whew! These were chocolate and yellow cakes, with cookies and cream filling. The baseball was iced in fondant, and the dirt was brown sugar.
How cute!! I bet they loved it!
very cute cake!
Great job on your cake!! Looks very good.
I just heard back from the lady who ordered it, and she said the kids loved it! What a relief.
Did you shape the fondant the same as a baseball is made or just layed it over the top?
Nope, I just covered the whole ball in fondant, then made the lines with a pastry wheel. I thought of cutting out the pieces, but decided to go the easy way - the lines weren't exactly right, but it saved a lot of time. :)
