More Like A Basketball Score, Really.............

Well, it never fails that family gets the quicker, simpler cakes.  This one was flown to Texas over Thanksgiving for my son and husband's joint birthday.  I used orange and brown--the colors of the Cleveland Browns--and the general shape & design of a football.
The cake (serves 20) was chocolate with vanilla buttercream covered in fondant.  Both men enjoyed it, but I think they'd have rather had a winning season for the Browns...............me, too.
