Goooool....... de Chivas

Another Chivas cake for a cousin. I had promised her this cake for her husband since last year. It was supposed to be a Raiders last year and I was going out for my birthday and wasn't able to do it, but this year I had too, only because we have the same birthday. Happy Birthday to both of us! Chivas jersey cake with a soccer ball and a Chivas towel over the ball. I have an excuse behind that towel, I had the worse time making that dumb ball, those shapes are a hassle to get right. I have a cutter but it doesn't work as good as it should because once you try to put them on the cake they don't connect right. Long story but I just threw the fondant towel over it with a Chivas logo.

Soccer ball cake

Ok, so I decided to make this soccer cake for my husbands godson and I really thought a soccer ball would almost be like a puzzle just connect them.....uuuuh no. Well I guess I should have started by having the proper hexagon cutting thingy, but no I didn't so I had to cut around it to get it to look like a hexagon. Anyways I got a little impatient and was running short on time so then I remember a soccer ball (of course better) with a scarf around it in a book I bought, so there I go, so I wouldn't have to keep cutting out any more weird shapes. So this is what I ended up with. Not exactly what I wanted but it's what's going to have to do. Good thing is I finished it on time. Wheeew..... I like to take my time on my cakes but I just didn't have it this time. Maybe next time thanks for looking.
