Red Sox Cake

 For my Dad's 50th birthday, guess who was in charge of the cake?  Yours truly.  His only request was "chocolate."  While I could have just picked up a chocolate sheet cake, I figured I should make him one of my cakes...since he is my dad and all :)  After thinking long and hard, I decided that baseball season was close enough and that I was going to make him a Red Sox cake. 

I covered the cake with white fondant.  Then I cute a large circle out of white fondant.  Then I cut red "Socks" out of fondant and decorated them with white royal icing and white fondant. Then I piped blue and red baseball seams on it.  Finally I finished the cake with blue shell borders. 

Football: Chocolate Covered Strawberries

       I just wanted to share a VERY SIMPLE football treat that anyone can make.  These strawberries were covered with melted chocolate.  I usually dip them while they are on skewers and then stick the other end of the skewers into floral foam (to keep the strawberries from being flat on one side).  Once the chocolate dries you can pipe on the details using either melted white chocolate or royal icing.  They are treats that are going to impress with very little work!

Football Fruit Arrangements

This is a Superbowl arrangement that I made last year for the superbowl. My grandmother has a party every year and we wanted to bring something different. I used a plush football Easter Basket as the base and filled it with a variety of floral shaped fruits. I also undcluded some chocolate dipped green apples and strawberries. This satisfies the chocolate lover in us all. It was a huge hit and I was lucky to get a picture before it was devoured.
