Has anyone ever made a stanley cup cake or made a cake with silver frosting? I could use some helpful hints and pics!
Thanks

I saw a picture of a stanly cup, cake in the gallery under sport's cakes. I don't remember who made it though but if you make a search it wouldn't be too hard to find. HTH

The tips I got when I asked the same question was to use navy blue and black coloring. It worked.

What is the easiest way to do the cake part?

I haven't made a Stanley Cup, although there was a lot of discussion about it here in Dallas in 1999 when the Stars won the Stanley Cup. Gee... I can't remember who they beat.... hmmmm.... gosh.... do you remember?

I've used silver highlighter dust mixed with grain alcohol in my airbrush to apply silver over a large area. I tinted my buttercream gray first so any missed spots or cracks in the icing wouldn't be obvious.

I did one for my son's undefeated hockey team last year, he was 8 at the time - you can see it in my photos - http://www.cakecentral.com/cake-photo_79558.html

I used the Betty Crocker Bake N Fill for the top - just use a very firm cake for this part, it was not the sturdiest part of the cake, but the shape was great.

I tinted the fondant grey first, then lustered it.

Due to non-cake related circumstances I was having a rotten day and was really rushed when doing this cake. Plus the edible images of the kids I had done at the grocery store did not all come out nice and clear. That's what made me break down and buy my own printer! So I think if I did it again I could make it much better, fewer wrinkles in the fondant, level, all sorts of things I see wrong. But the kids loved it - so that's what really mattered. BTW the pictures of all the kids on the cup was my son's idea
