Graduation cake for a soccer player

Graduation cake for my great-nephew. Not exactly my neatest work but it is what it is. Bottom is chocolate cake with peanut butter filing with a mix of dark and milk chocolate ganache. Top is vanilla cake with raspberry reduction and passion fruit SMBC.

Comment by Luz Iglesias on June 16, 2015 at 12:12pm: Great job Goreti, love the zipper!!

Comment by Goreti on June 15, 2015 at 9:35am: Thanks Sandra. Wanted something a little different than thought about the graduation gown with the zipper and this design popped into my head.

Comment by Sandra Smiley on June 15, 2015 at 8:57am: Goreti, I think the tassels add a lot to the rope border, very nice and they echo the hat. I love the soccer balls, too, but to me the coolest part is how you made the robe's zipper. So original.

Comment by June Kowalczyk on June 15, 2015 at 8:05am: I think I understand Katy. I do pretty much the same, also using the palms of my hands. I roll the fondant back and forth away and towards me, as you say Katy, slowly stretching, making it longer until desired thinness/thickness is reached. Never thought of using the fondant smoother to even out tho. Good tip. Duly noted....

Comment by Katy Nott on June 15, 2015 at 7:31am: Oh I'm sure Goreti! Getting it real thing is a pain indeed!

Comment by Goreti on June 15, 2015 at 7:17am: Yes Katy, that is how I ended up doing the ones for the rope border. It makes it pretty even but the really thin one for the tassels are a pain. So much easier with an extruder.

Comment by Katy Nott on June 15, 2015 at 7:10am: Don't know if you know this trick Goreti and June. I don't have an extruder either, so when I want to do long strings, I start to roll in and out and stretch it with my palms and fingers. Then to even it out, I get a fondant smoother and roll that backwards and forwards over the strip. Works really well and gives an even depth and nice and round. Don' t know if that makes sense?
