This was my first jersey cake. I did it for a church friend’s grandson. Requito is his nickname and he was turning 15. I was given the freedom to make whatever I wanted. All I knew about him was that he loved the color blue and basketball, so I figured what would be better than a basketball jersey cake! Its a double layer half sheet cake. I cut the top corners off to give the cake the “jersey” shape. I frosted it with buttercream and hand cut the name and numbers out of navy blue and white fondant. Then I added blue and white fondant striping to the sides and neck line. I finished it off with some navy and white fondant stars.
