Create a show-stopping soccer cake for birthdays or tournaments! Exciting and impressive for any occasion.
Ingredients:
  • cooking spray
  • 0.75 cup white sugar
  • food coloring
  • 1 (18.25 ounce) package yellow cake mix
  • 1 (16 ounce) container vanilla frosting
  • 12 black licorice whips
Instructions:
  • Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 2 1/2 to 3-quart oven-proof bowl with cooking spray and flour. Mix sugar with black food coloring in a separate bowl until you reach your desired color. Keep it ready for use.
  • Follow the instructions on the cake mix package to prepare the batter. Then, pour the batter into the prepared bowl and bake in the preheated oven until a skewer inserted in the center comes out clean, approximately 1 hour and 15 minutes. Allow the cake to cool in the bowl for 15 minutes, then flip it over to cool completely, which should take about 30 more minutes.
  • After the cake has cooled completely, trim the flat side of the cake and transfer it onto a cake board. Shape the edges into a ball shape. Cover the cake with frosting. Create a pentagon in the center of the cake using a toothpick. Encircle the pentagon with five hexagons. Repeat this pattern all over the cake.
  • Place 1 1/2-inch pieces of black licorice on top of the lines, then fill the pentagon shapes with black-colored white sugar.
