This cake was for a friends 40th. He is a football fanatic, and so a personalised team shirt it had to be. I was a little short on time, so the cake was not quite as sharp as I would have liked it to be, but on the whole for the first shirt cake I have made I was quite pleased. The cake was a Madeira filled with jam and buttercream. I tinted the fondant red myself using a Christmas Red paste colour, and used my fondant extruder to make the piping rolls and the sleeve edges. I love to bake, I do, I can't help it! I stay mainly on the sweet side, but occasionally venture into the savoury.
