I am making a Pittsburg Steelers cake for my husband's 40th birthday. I am happy with the decorations I have made so far but I feel like I need something else. Suggestions? Please forgive my crude MS Paint drawing. I have looked in the gallery but I am still drawing a blank. Thank you for looking!

I'd say by the time you put a top border on your drawing it will be just fine.

I am assuming this will be a sheet cake.  If so, what about decorating that as a football field?  Green frosting with some white yard lines, then the Steeler (circle) in the center at the 50 yard line.

It will be a 9 inch round. The emblem will be on the bottom and the Terrible Towel will be the topper.

To clarify, the emblem will be on the side of the cake. icon_smile.gif

No, put the towel on top - stand it up using sucker sticks OR toothpicks that stick into the cake.

The fringe on the towel broke off and my son bumped into the left side of the cake but overall I am pretty happy with the outcome. Thanks for all the suggestions!
