nEED HELP IN MAKE POM POMS FOR A CHEERLEADER CAKE -- ANY IDEAS HOW TO MAKE THEM?

If you do them in BC just start wth a round 2D cake like a small mini half ball cake and use a star tip or the grass tip and pull out from the middle.There is a pic here on CC and I have saved it to my files but it won't let me upload.

http://cakecentral.com/gallery/1467524 this is really cute. If you did not have the half ball pan, you could carve a cake into a shape for the pompom

Not sure if you're after them as their own specific cake or if the poms will be decoration "on" the cake...if it's "on", use a grass tip as previously posted.
Works like a charm!

extruder tool, making several "ropes" at the same time, then pinch in the middle and trim as needed????

I haven't done this with fondant but my daughter used a garlic press with clay in art class if you don't have an extruder.

I just did a cheerleader cake. I rolled balls of fondant and used the grass tip to pipe the strings. They looked very realistic!
