How do you make a round cake that looks like this shape. Do you sculpt it, or do you start with smaller cakes and the bottom and bigger at the top.
Thanks
Okay, I couldn't figure out how to add the picture, sorry.

I'd assume they used the ball pan. It's two half spheres that you put together to make a full sphere. I think they have them at Michael's. If you aren't looking to buy a pan, I would stack smaller and bigger sized cakes together and carve from there. Start with the smaller cakes, go bigger towards the middle and back to small towards the top. HTH
First I couldn't get it on there, and second, I put the wrong cake.
Here is the cake: I know how to do the balls, it's the cake part I have never done.

Ah.. well then yes, it's easier to start with a smaller size on the bottom and bigger on top, then carve to the shape you want it. Good luck!
aren't there mini ball pans? OR you could use two mini wondermolds and shave them down to ball shape...that's what I would do

Yes, it is much easier to start with different sizes. I did this one using a 6" on the bottom, then a 7" in the middle, and an 8" on top:

Thanks, that's what I need to know. I do plan on using the mini ball pan for the baseballs, basketball, and soccer balls, and I found a mini football pan at Wall Mart to use fot the football. I guess I forgot to say this is for a "sports ball" cake. I just love the "Red Sox" cake they did.
Thanks, for the help.
You could also use Rice Krispy treats to shape the balls. That's what I did for my caterpillar cake. After I formed the balls, I put them in the freezer to set since at 83 degrees (at the time) they were taking forever to harden.
