Basketball cake

August 22, 2016

This is a three-tier fondant covered cake decorated with a bunch of edible images!  My client wanted a large cake for her son’s 10th birthday that was themed after his favorite basketball team, the Golden State Warriors.  For inspiration, my client sent me a lot of Warriors logos, so I thought it would be fitting for them to be allover the cake like posters on a wall.  The bottom tier is a 10″ chocolate & vanilla marble cake with Oreo buttercream, and the middle tier was an 8″ lemon cake with raspberry buttercream.  The top tier was a 5″ Rice Krispy basketball covered in chocolate ganache and fondant.  This cake was certainly a hit!  Here’s a review from my client: “Joy, Thank you so SO much for making the most amazing cake I’ve purchased yet! I got so many compliments on the style and creativity on the cake! The lemon raspberry selection was an absolute hit!  Just had to share and send my deepest appreciation for the cake! I will definitely be in touch!!!” XOXO, ~D
