Boston Red Sox Baseball Cake

My friend, Erin, got married this past weekend and asked me to make a groom's cake for the rehearsal dinner. I LOVED the engagement pictures they took at the Durham Bull's baseball park and she wanted a cake to show their love for baseball. Here it is...


I love how the baseball turned out! It was my first time using rice krispy treats to mold. Believe it or not, the baseball is a WHOLE recipe of rice krispy treats. I had to mush it all together to make the ball and then iced it with buttercream and covered it with fondant.

 
This is also the first time I used a grass tip to make the grass on the cake. It is buttercream grass and the rest of the cake is covered with fondant. The flavor- chocolate with buttercream.

 
I hope the groom liked it!

Vintage Wedding Cake







 
This wedding cake is one of my favorites...I love the blush pink and ivory colors the bride asked me to make the flowers. She gave me the little birds (they were actually little cheese spreaders) to put on cake. How cute! The cake was white almond with buttercream icing and gumpaste flowers.
