Soccer Themed Cake


Soccer-themed birthday parties are quite popular these days probably due to the increased interest of Filipinos in the sport and the gaining popularity of the Azkals. Two weeks ago I made cupcakes for a birthday celebration but this time it got bigger and became a cake!


I finally made my perfect hexagon with the aid of a star shaped cookie cutter. I just had to cut all its arms and lo and behold I got my evenly shaped black and white pieces to assemble as my soccer ball and I was really pleased with the results.


The celebrant's name is AJ so I thought of putting the name and the age in the shirt as a detail. I wish I had a much better icing tip to resemble grass, oh well.  I guess I just have to include it in my 'Things to Buy' list when I have the opportunity to get more cake decorating stuff. I'm thinking of doing a specific team rather than opting for a general one next time for variety.

Happy 8th Birthday AJ! I hope you liked your cake as much as I did! ^^
