Here's a Wilton thread which uses ball pan to make tea pot:

I just did one, and it wasn't too difficult. I used the sports ball pan, iced in buttcream, then fondant. For the lid I just cut a circle piece of fondant, and attatched a little knob. For the handle and spout, I just molded pieces out of fondant (you can get several ideas of photo's on this website), let dry a few days. I had inserted a couple thin dowels (into the handle and spout), so that I could then insert into cake, and have it hold up. That was it. I needed more cake, so I put it on a 10" round.
This is really strange, I was in TJ Max's a little while ago, standing there looking at this really funky teapot. The colors were awsome, and the design just made you HAPPY. I stood there thinking should I buy this and try and make a cake like it. I talked myself out of it, saying I could remember it. I to want to make a teapot, and NOW
I really do! Thanks!
This is a little off topic, but could someone tell me how to make the ball pan work? I tried to make a "ball" and it was horrible once I leveled both half balls, it was no longer a nice round ball, then it wouldn't really stay together.....please help as I would like to make a teapot for my nieces spring tea at her school.
thanks!

I haven't used this pan yet, but I want to get it. I think, however, if you use the "smash down" method instead of cutting to make it level, it would still stay in the ball shape.
