This cake was done for my 7 year old daughter's soccer team party. She wanted a cake that looked like her "Purple Panther" jersey. The cake is carved (my first!) from an 11x15 sheet, double layer vanilla caramel cake with caramel filling and covered in buttercream. I had a lot of trouble with getting the buttercream to hold the purple color. This is the first time I used the "new Crisco". I'm wondering if that was the problem.
