This cake was so much fun to do. The invitation had a Jewish star that was cut in the wierd shapes you see. I xeroxed the invite, and blew it up to the size to fit the cake. Once the icing had crusted over, I carefully placed the cut pieces on the cake. Then I pushed gently, and there is the pattern to follow.
I put cornelli lace in those spaces, and for a different look, I did NOT outline the triangles. I did however outline the name Alex to have it stand out. The letters say "Mazel Tov" in Hebrew, and they were made from royal icing, and painted silver with silver dust. Around the sides of the cake are more cornelli lace. I did cheat with the soccer balls. I used the Wilton soccer balls that are premade!
