My husband is a huge 49ers fan and as soon as they made it to the super bowl he said he wanted to host a party. I was all for it because I wanted to make a football cake. He told me that was all I was allowed to make and that he didn’t want me to go overboard. Of course I couldn’t just do a cake. I had to make some cute football cookies and try out my new push pop containers that I recently got from Pick Your Plum.
I used my Pampered Chef Batter bowl for the cake. It’s the same one that I used for the
Barbie cake last summer. Football
cakes look a little weird. People
were joking that it looked like meatloaf.
I had fun making it and it tasted great. I used the same chocolate cake recipe from Glorious Treats
that I have used before. I also
made my own fondant. It’s a
marshmallow fondant with almond extract.
I think that it tastes way better than the store bought stuff, but I
have to practice working with it a little more.
The push pops were a last minute addition. I wanted to practice before I make some princess ones for my niece’s up coming birthday. They were fun to make, but I should have had three layers of cake to fill it up a little more.
Although the outcome of the game wasn’t what we had hoped,
the party was fun and I got to do some baking and crafting.
