Lions Football Grooms Cake
Football field cakes can be a great way to showcase a groom's interests and it's much more economical than a sculpted football helmet or stadium cake. For this cake we used a combination of edible images and Cricut cut-outs as the main decorations. The cake stand was awesome, and was made by the grooom's mother if I remember correctly. We delivered this groom's cake to Trevitt Hall in Dalton, GA.
But I just fell in love with these chocolate covered strawberry "footballs". I have seen them before, but this was my first time making them.
They are your basic chocolate-dipped strawberries, but with a twist (or a spiral!). Once the chocolate firmed up, I used royal icing to pipe the lines and the laces on the "footballs". I think you will agree that it is a pretty convincing effect! And the word from the wedding party was that they were very delicious!
Any of you have any other ingenious disguises for chocolate covered strawberries?
