Answers:
Tools:
First & Ten Football Pan
Tip: 3
Tip: 16
Cake Board
Fanci-Foil Wrap
Ingredients:
Brown Icing Color
Cake Release
Buttercream icing
Makes: Cake serves 12!.

instructions:

Prepare Icing:
I suggest that you tint all icings at one time while cake cools!. Refrigerate tinted icings in covered containers until ready to use!.

Make 1 1/2 cups buttercream icing:
Tint 1 cup brown (remove 2 tablespoons and tint a darker brown)
Reserve 1/2 cup white

Decorate in Order:

1!. Ice cake smooth with brown icing!.
2!. Use tip 16 and white icing top outline and fill-in stripes on top and bottom ends of football (smooth with finger dipped in cornstarch)!.
3!. Use tip 16 and white icing to pipe seam on football!.
4!. Use tip 3 and white icing to pipe stitching lines over white seam!.

Baking Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°F or temperature per recipe directions!. Your cake will unmold easily, without sticking, when you prepare the pan properly!. Grease the inside of pan using a pastry brush and solid vegetable shortening (do not use butter, margarine or liquid vegetable oil)!. Spread the shortening so that all indentations are covered!. Sprinkle about 2 Tablespoons flour inside pan and shake so that flour covers all greased surfaces!.


Turn pan upside down and tap lightly to remove excess flour!. If any shiny spots remain, touch up with more shortening and flour to prevent cake from sticking!. (You can use vegetable oil pan spray or vegetable oil pan spray with flour, in place of solid shortening and flour or use Wilton Cake Release, for perfect, crumb-free cakes!)!.

Make one 2-layer cake mix according to package or recipe directions!. Pour the cake batter into pan, and if necessary, spread the batter around with a spatula to fill all areas of the pan evenly!. Be careful not to touch sides or bottom of pan!.


Bake cake on middle rack of 350°F oven for 30-40 minutes or until cake tests done according to recipe directions!.

Remove cake from oven and cool on cake rack for 10 minutes!. While the cake is still in the pan, carefully slice off the raised center portion of the cake!. This allows the cake to sit more level and helps prevent cracking!.


To remove cake from pan, place cooling rack against cake and turn both cake rack and pan over!. Lift pan off carefully!. Cool cake at least one hour!. Brush loose crumbs off cake!.

To transfer cake to serving board, hold a cake board against cake and turn both cake and rack over!. Lift off rack!. Hold another board against bottom of cake and turn cake over!. Be sure to hold cake, rack and board close together while turning to prevent cake from cracking!.

I recommend hand washing pan in hot, soapy water

HOPE THIS HELPS!?Www@FoodAQ@Com

without trying to cut the cake into shape which wouldnt be smooth, unless you then covered in chocolate icing to hide imperfections in cutting, I would try and bend a circular cake into the shape of a football before pouring the mixture in, i dont think it would be that hard to bend into shapeWww@FoodAQ@Com

Below is a web site from Duncan Hines!.

If this is not exactly what you want, I would suggest making 2 cakes, put one on top of the other, and cutting them to the shape you want!.
