I made these on request for a musician friend who was having a World Cup Final party. He wanted suitable flavours and colours for the two countries and a trophy cake. For the Spanish cakes, I chose red vanilla icing and a mixed spice/nutmeg sponge with fresh strawberry pieces. For Holland I had to go with a chocolate orange sponge and orange flavoured orange icing - orange, orange, orange! I couldn't think how to make a replica trophy (particularly at 11.45pm) so I used edible lustre dust to colour vanilla buttercream gold and used the same powder on the letters spelling out 2010. I couldn't resist making the mini yellow and red cards for the referee cake - just in case they didn't get the bright yellow icing!
