My first ball shaped cake :-) It settled overnight in the freezer & the bottom 'round' fattened out :-( My original construction was 2 dome shaped cakes using Pyrex bowl (for top & bottom) and one 8x2 round center that got torted and carved out. the whole thing went into the freezer, then carved, frosted in orange buttercream to match the fondant, covered in fondant and decorated. The bumps on the ball were made by using the shelf line from IKEA. The humidity was so high the fondant started sliding.
