Sunday Sweets: Super Bowl

You may remember from last year's Super Bowl Sweets that we the CW team know almost as much about sports as we do about weasel neutering.

So...

WHO'S READY FOR SOME FOOTBAAAAAAAAAAAALL?!?!

(The Super Bowl IS football, right? Oh, good.)

I watch the Super Bowl every year - despite my lack of sports knowledge - just because I get to eat glorious piles of delicious junk food:

Mmmm...Oooonion riiings...

I love the Seussian details; it looks like it's straight out of Green Eggs and Junk Food!


It's a fact that Super Bowl parties are the only place where it's entirely acceptable, nay, expected!, to eat a whole bag of potato chips by yourself.

RRRRuffles have RRRidges made out of fondant, and they're amazing.

The only way I know this isn't a real bag of chips is how full it is. Usually when I open a bag, it's 75% air, 15% chip crumbs, and 10% greasy-fingered shame.

 

Of course, no Super Bowl party would be complete without a heaping stack o' wings:

Now, I know what you're thinking: those are real wings on cake, which is disgusting. I thought the same thing. So we called the baker in Tempe, AZ and asked her. Turns out they're made of fondant! Un-Be-Freakin'-Lievable.

 

I just remembered that this is supposed to be a football post.

Fine. Here.

Seriously, Mike. Did you steal a piping bag from Warehouse 13?

[Ok, so we *might* have just given you a clue why we know nothing about football.]

BACK TO THE FOOD!

 

Hey, you know what goes great with sports for which you care nothing? Pizza!

It's pretty rare to see a pizza box cake. I love it. And check out the little mushrooms!

 

Now I know what you're thinking: what am I gonna drink with all this junkfood, water? What do I look like, a health nut? What am I, a fish?!

No! You're an American!

You drink BEER!

 

Unless, of course, you're NOT an American. In which case:

You drink LAGER!

The bottles and ice on both cakes are made of sugar. Total homerun!

 

Ok, I know what you're all waiting for. After all, you can't have the Super Bowl without some bone-crunching, cheerleading, touch-downing, grass-staining, FOOTBALL.

... INTERRUPTING COMMERCIALS!!

Personally, the commercials are my favorite part of the Super Bowl. Like the Mighty Anheuser-Busch Clydesdales!

D'awww. Who's a mighty widdle clydesdale?! It's you, it's you!

Ahem.

 

Okay, okay, we probably need to talk about football or... something.

So, the New England Patriots are playing.

And I'm pretty sure they'll win because this cake is very tall and majestic.

 

Also, the New York Giants are playing:

Although I hear blue balls are hard to run with.

And so, it is with a heavy heart and a full stomach that we bring this post to an end, with one final, majestic nod to the ol' pig skin:

Have a great Super Bowl Sunday everybody!

Or, ya know, just a Sunday.
