Team loyalties are crazy fierce, fans go to the ends of the earth to support, defend and rally their players.
And as far as beautiful games are concerned, football is king.
> Awesome ways to use the football beverage - beer!
> What to do when things get hot (under the collar)!
> Get through the late nights, with chocolate
As certain as politics and religion can.
In this World Cup season, I want to celebrate the joys of sports, and the happiness it brings.
Presenting... The green, blues and yellows of.. Henry Hugglemonster!
> Who's Henry Hugglemonster?
> More yellow desserts
- Busy day at the construction site
- Minions at work
- A Rilakkuma birthday

Right: The real Henry
Left: My version!

I know it's not what you'd associate with football. But besides the colors of Brazil, Henry also does his part rallying little kids in the challenges of life, teaching extermination, diversity and drive.
Just like sports and football do.
You see the similarities I'm sure :)

Happy splash of colors paying World Cup homage

The starting point: Base cake layers decked with surprise fillings (crushed oreos, chocolate
chips, mango), and chocolate and vanilla buttercream. These get stacked and covered with blue fondant, before a smaller 2nd tier goes on top.
With a fairly flat top tier, you can try and cover the entire cake with a single piece of fondant
like I did here. If your top tier is high, you should cover the 2 tiers separately and stack them.
Recipe for the cake base:
> Martha Stewart's delectable Chocolate Torte
> Bakerella's amazing Chocolate Cake

Handpainting takes a steady hand, and good spelling.
Practice, practice, practice till you get good at it, like sports!

Ole World Cup!
