It’s the Superbowl this weekend and we are celebrating New Orleans Saints style.\u00a0 Yes, I’m aware of the fact that New Orleans is NOT in the Superbowl, but I figured it was a fitting post for a football fueled week.\u00a0<\/p>\n

I don’t claim to know ANYTHING about football, especially the NFL.\u00a0 I used to watch the CFL (which is the Canadian Football League for you non-Canadians reading this), but this was mostly because our family had one TV and I had a brother and father who loved to watch it!\u00a0<\/p>\n

I know TWO facts about professional football: the CFL is more of a passing game, while the NFL is more of a rushing game, and large, sweaty mean wear super tight tights…often white in colour!\u00a0<\/p>\n

To make this cake, we used our edible ink printer.\u00a0 Having an edible printer in our caking arsenal is something that comes in extremely handy when getting last minute orders . . . which is what this open happened to be.\u00a0 It makes us incredibly pleased to be able to send a customer away happy . . . and it makes ME pleased to not have to fight with fondant until the wee hours of the morning \ud83d\ude42\u00a0<\/p>\n

The cake itself is a lemon cake, filled with fresh raspberries.\u00a0 It is covered in vanilla buttercream, and the piping is done with black buttercream.\u00a0 I used Wilton’s Tip 18 to pipe the borders, and the fleur de lis.\u00a0 There is one fleur de lis on all four sides of the cake.\u00a0 I really like how they tied in the logo of the team.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Keeping our edible ink printer in\u00a0 tip top shape takes a lot of work.\u00a0 We find that running the printer on a regular basis helps with proper maintenance and produces a higher quality image.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Full Disclosure:\u00a0<\/strong><\/em> I thought that the Saints were in the Superbowl this weekend.\u00a0 Ooops.\u00a0 I told you I had no idea what I was talking about when it came to football!\u00a0 After pretending like I knew all along has been weighing on me throughout this post . . . bahaha!\u00a0<\/p>\n

Are YOU a football fan?<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n
