Easy Baseball Cake

Cakes are like the jewelry of the party.  I love having a really cute cake, and most of the time I buy them.  But, this year for my son's birthday I thought it would be fun to make a baseball cake.  It wasn't as hard as I anticipated either!  

I got Wilton's ball cake pan and followed the directions using a regular cake mix from the store.  I like to make my own frosting, but I was low on time so I just bought store frosting.  The great thing about this cake pan is that it comes with directions on how to make many different sport balls - soccer, bowling, basketball, etc. so it's pretty versatile.  I have a football pan that I do the same thing during football season!

It didn't take long to decorate using decorating tips.  I bought this set a long time ago and used the #18 tip for the baseball.  I used red decorating gel with one of the small tips for the red piping.  

I frosted the cupcakes and added the shirts that I picked up at a party store.  I stuck everything in a cake box I also purchased at the party store, and WA-LAH, a great looking cake!

The baseball was classic yellow cake, and I made the cupcakes chocolate to give the kids a little choice.  It was a big hit, and everyone loved it!  Someone even asked where I bought the cake, and so I felt it was successful!
