A Poké Ball for My Son's Birthday

This was the easiest cake request so far. So much easier than a Mario cake, a Rapunzel cake, an Ariel cake, a penguin cake, or an elephant.

After all, a poké ball is just… a ball. That is round. And round, circle cake pans are pretty standard.

I also used strawberry icing for the red parts of the poké ball. Yes, it should be more red than pink, but from my experiences with the Mario cakes, it takes a lot of red food coloring to make red icing - which can be messy.

The black part of the poké ball - which is more outline than black - I used some black decorative icing I had on hand.

Was my some happy with the result? Absolutely. He was thrilled.

Here’s the result:
