I made this for a girl turning 12. When I asked her what she wanted she told me she likes soccer and her favorite color is orange. So you here you have it. Soccer and orange. Turned out to be a good combo. I have to say though, the soccer ball was a struggle. I really wanted to try the ball shape and I am glad I did. But I am also glad that part of cake decorating is covering flaws. On the back of the ball is a big 12. Not part of the original plan but it worked.
