I am doing some sort of a baseball cake for my son's birthday Saturday. I had planned to do a 14" round (one white layer one chocolate, with chocolate filling and buttercream frosting) and just decorate it white with red baseball markings. Now I'm thinking I might like to do something a little different, and net searches aren't giving me any good ideas.

Does anyone know of a good baseball cake?

You could use the sports ball pan and make the baseball three dimentional....maybe placing it on top of a square cake iced in green to look like a basball diamond.

Yes...the 3D Sportball pan is great!!! I've used it for many a round cake!! That is one pan I've invested in buying and have used alot!!Do a search under Google,web images,type in Baseball cakes.

I believe I have the ball pan, but no instructions. At least I hope I have the entire ball pan, anyway. icon_smile.gif

OK, I have the actual pan part, but not the stands. Is there something else I can use for that?

I downloaded the instructions from this site for how to do the pan, and now I'm excited!

I think I'll do the ball in pound cake and the 14" layers in either all chocolate or chocolate and white...and maybe the entire top just in green grass, to look like a ball in the grass.

Now I'm excited!

When I got my easter egg pan it didn't have the stands to hold the two sections, so I bought two large apple shaped cookie cutters, they held it just
fine! Janice

when i do ball shaoed cakes i never use a ball shap pan... coz they r never big enough... i use already baked sheet cakes and mold the cake with the filling and gaskets in 2 same shaped round bowls.. and freeze them.. them i use dowell rods to support the top rounded half... kinda confusing.. but it works icon_smile.gif
