At least, I was given enough notice: since the “football cake”, I had been told what was expected of me….
For the base, I used my recipe of “Custard cake”, without the rhubarb

Two of, sandwich together with some plain vanilla icing, also used for the top. For the sandy texture of the playing field, I just coloured some sugar
and let it dried… any left over can then be used for a carrot cake! đ
As for the ball, I used the same method as for my football

in order to have something “chocolatey” too…
Not perfect but the Birthday Boy was happy!
