This graduation celebration cake was made for a young man who went to The McCallie School in Chattanooga. He was very into football and baseball and will begin his new chapter in life at Auburn University in the fall.
The bottom tier was all about his high school experience, his school's logo along with their team logo. The sports memorabilia sits around and atop the first tier, as the great memories he'll carry into college. The top tier contains the Auburn paw prints along with their battle cry "War Eagle!" On top of the cake we made an Auburn University topper from modeling chocolate. The graduate's favorite treat, peanut butter cups, adorn the entire cake.
The footballs, were made using chocolate molds, and I made the baseballs using a cakepop (cake and icing) mixture. It was pretty firm and I thought it held its shape reasonably well, although after sitting for a while I got a little droopage. The Tornado logo was printed on edible image, and that was really just because it didn't lend itself well to any other method. All the other logos and text were cut from modeling chocolate using the cutting machine.
