Marti1 Hi! This is my second attempt at gumpaste, so it was kind of a trial and error thing. But this is what I did. Roll out gumpaste to fit over one half of baseball pan. Then rolled out a strip of gumpaste for the brim, circled it around the ball pan and let the whole thing sit overnight to make sure it was dry. I used the Wilton gumpaste mix. The stitching details were done using a rolling tool that I found in the sewing section of the craft store, don't know the actual name. Hope this helps!

Yes, that helps a lot. I hope to make this cake and the fire man's helmet for his groom cake June 2. I will be making practice cakes until then Thanks for your quick and helpful reply
