How to Make No-Bake Rice Krispies Soccer Cake
Skip the traditional cake and build your soccer stadium with Rice Krispies cereal or rice puffs instead. This fun no-bake dessert is quick to assemble, easy to decorate, and perfect for a World Cup watch party, celebrating soccer season, or a birthday for any soccer fan.
THINGS YOU NEED
- Baking pan 9×13 inch
- Foil or Wax Paper
- LEGO silicone mold
- Piping Bags
- Grass Piping Tip
- Round Piping Tip #3 or #4
CEREAL LAYER
Prepare cereal layer and chill it till firm, about 4 hours or overnight.
CHOCOLATE DECORATIONS
The easiest way to decorate this no-bake Rice Krispies soccer cake is with chocolate candy melts. Since candy melts are made with compound chocolate, there’s no need to temper chocolate. Just melt them according to the package directions and use them to create the LEGO®-style players and chocolate goals. If you’re short on time, you can also use plastic soccer goals instead of making them from chocolate. And if you feel inspired, complete your soccer-themed dessert spread by pairing this cake with my Soccer Ball Cookies.
DECORATE WITH BUTTERCREAM
Prepare a batch of American buttercream, coloring about two-thirds green and leaving the remaining one-third white. Fill a piping bag fitted with a grass piping tip with green buttercream, then pipe grass around the base of the cake. Transfer the white buttercream into a piping bag fitted with a small round tip (#3or #4), then pipe the soccer field lines.
TIP: If buttercream gets too soft, stick it into the fridge for 10 minutes to firm up.
