I made this cake for a Superbowl here party at the United Kingdom. I tried to look like the logo to the Superbowl XLV.
It is a cake of chocolate four layer base with red, white and blue fill vanilla madeleines. I covers not basing to gray, cut out letters XLV and used spray of lustre Pearl for her metallic appearance, as the XLV logo.
I inserted 3 pegs in the cake to every corner of the Lombardi Trophy support. The trophy is made from rice Krispy treats which are molded and cut by hand and is covered with spray fondant and chandelier, identical to the base of cake. Football is held in place using sticks of cocktails and royal icing.
I have two based helmets to white which I moulded on tennis balls wrapped in cling film. Once dry I painted them with dye food to make a Steelers and Packers helmet.
The Council was covered through green with lines down pipes.
The cake was a success in the day - and some consolation for the majority of the guests who were fans steelers (like me!). The major problem that I had was that during the night, that rice krispy treats began to warm, causing the trophy to lean on one side and the basis to collapse.
