Touchdown! - Indianapolis Colts Football Cake

Calling all sports fans! We promised there would be more sports cakes on the blog. Tuesday was devoted to softball, today is football, and tomorrow's cake is well ... pretty unusual, but does have a basketball influence. That's all we can say about it. You'll just have to see it.

The cake above was made for a 30th birthday party for a man who loves, you guessed it, the Indianapolis Colts. Rick had the idea of making the football white and blue rather than the regulation colors and our client was excited about it. This cake took a little research. We're not exactly huge football fans or are we too familiar with the Indianapolis Colts, however, like everyday in cakeland, it's a learning experience and we were happy to add the Colts to our portoflio of football cakes, which is building every year!

Football Cake - For the Son or the Daddy?

When we took the order for the sculpted football cake with University of Hawaii logo several months ago, we noted the cake was for a birthday party for a couple's son Brennan. We wondered if the child, Brennan, was named after Colt Brennan, who used to play for the Hawaii Warriors. It was a plausible guess, but we'll never know for sure. The father of the child picked up his cake at our studio shortly before we had to leave for another event and for a brief time, we almost forgot that the cake was for his son. He was so enamored of the cake and we wondered if he would allow anyone to cut and serve the cake or if it would just be stared at in admiration by the football fans in the room. Touchdown! Happy Birthday Brennan!

More cakes to come soon. Aloha, til next time!
