It’s football season, and we have a special cake pan and recipe to help you start the season off right!

This month our featured product is the First and Ten Football cake pan, I’m going to share a neat way to use the First and Ten Football pan besides baking a cake.

Whether you’re a football fan or have children who play pop warner, this pan can be used over and over again. As you might imagine, I’ve used this pan to make cakes for Father’s Day, birthday parties, Super Bowl parties and football Sundays.

One thing I love about this pan is that it’s very simple to frost and decorate as a football cake. All you need is a tub of chocolate cake frosting and small white frosting tube from the grocery store.

Yes, you can bake cute football shaped cakes with this PAN, but you can also get creative and create something new. In this newsletter, I’m going to show you how to do just that and share a favorite recipe utilizing the football pan in a new way you may never have thought of.
