Rugby World Cup 2011 Kick-Off – Building team spirit!

For the kick-off of the Rugby World Cup 2011, the digitization unit decided to make a rugby field, along with the stadium, cars and people out of a cake. We asked The Pastry Princess to bake four square cakes, and we put all four next to each other to make one big square cake in order to use it as the stadium. We dyed coconut green for the grass, and used Oreo wafers and boudoirs and toothpicks to create the pavilion. Jelly babies were used as “people” and the cars and flowers was bought at Bakers Bin. The two teams which were projected on the field were South Africa and New Zealand. Danie gave us a one-on-one about the rules and engagement of rugby.
