If any of you have done a jersey cake before, can you tell me how you did it?

I haven't done a jersey cake before but if you search the galleries and find one that you like, you can PM the person who did this. I think you'll get a better response that way. HTH.

I have an order for a first birthday jersey this weekend. I am just going to do a jersey in fondant and lay it on a sheet cake and do it in OSU colors like they want

I've done two, one baseball, one football. I went to www.nfl.com and found the jersey I needed (peyton manning), copied and pasted it to Word, then printed it and used my copier to enlarge it to fit the size cake I was making. Then I placed it on top of the cake and carved it, iced it, and used fondant for the number and name on the back. They're both posted in my pics. Hope that helps. Probably an easier way to do it, but at the time it worked for me. These days, I would probably just carve it freehand! icon_smile.gif

My customer brought in a sketch. It's quite ingenious. It is a gridiron with a jersey in the middle and Happy birthday written in the endzones. It will make a nice cake. I am using fondant no doubt.

I have one in my photos that I made for my granddaughters 11th birthday. I used the Wilton shirt pan. Don't even know if it is still available.

The soccer jersey in my photos I did by carving the shape from an 11x15 sheet. I made a template on paper first. The logo on the shirt is a frozen buttercream transfer. The rest of the pattern/colours on the shirt I eyeballed from a picture of the jersey.
