Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour the two 8-inch round cake pans.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Add the eggs, milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract. Beat with an electric mixer on medium speed until well combined. Reduce the speed and slowly pour in the boiling water, mixing until the batter is smooth.
- Divide the batter evenly between the prepared cake pans. Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Remove from the oven and let the cakes cool in the pans for 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- In a mixing bowl, beat the softened butter until creamy. Gradually add the powdered sugar, milk or heavy cream, and vanilla extract. Beat until the frosting is smooth and fluffy. Add a few drops of green food coloring to achieve the desired shade of grass for the soccer field.
- Level the tops of the cooled cakes if necessary. Place one cake layer on a serving plate or cake stand. Spread a layer of green frosting on top. Place the second cake layer on top and cover the entire cake with the green frosting, creating a smooth surface.
- Using the white decorating icing or royal icing, create the lines and markings of a soccer field on top of the green frosting, following the stencil or template. If using fondant cutouts, place them on the cake to resemble players or other soccer elements. Add soccer ball candies or fondant cutouts for extra detail.
- Your soccer field cake is now ready to be served! Cut into slices and delight in the soccer-themed sweetness.
