Since it's Spring Training I've decided to make the SWB RailRiders Baby Bomber logo into a cake.  So far, I've made from Scratch a dark chocolate cake with chocolate buttercream.  I've then covered the cake in fondant.  My next step is to remake the Baby bomber logo in fondant.  I've traced the logo to use as a guide.  A lot of detail will go into this cake.  It will be a lot of fun to finish this cake.  I will post a step by step video how this was done by Sunday.

I've had this dream of making baseball cakes for every Major League team!  This season i will take on this challenge.  Each new week I will make a new cake and provide step by step instructions. These videos are made to inspire fans, cake decorators and anyone who wants to try something different. Please follow me on my baseball baking journey.  

Welcome back Aroldis Chapman to the Yankees

Hello fellow Yankees Fan,

  I’ve recently have been selected as a nominee for the inaugural MLB Fans of the Year program, representing the New York Yankees.  I truly love the Yankees and my passion for pride, power and pinstripes is undeniable.  Being selected among 3 other Yankees fans out of millions is reward of itself.  Especially being on mlb.com website.  I’ve decided to make a few promo votes of why you should vote for me on twitter using the hashtag #YanksFOTY1

Over two years ago my wife gave me my awesome Yankees mancave for our 2nd wedding anniversary.  So going into my 3rd holiday season with the room I've decided this year to have my very own Yankees holiday tree.  Who says a mancave isn’t allowed to be festive!

Let me know what you Yankees fans think!

On this day 6 years ago the New York Yankees defeated the Philadelphia Phillies in the World Series! The Yankees earned their 27^th World Championship.  Until today no other NY baseball team has won a world series!  I’ve made a video last night to remind everyone what does the most recent NY baseball Championship Hat and T-shirt looks like!

Sorry Mets 2015 wasn't your year!

Last night after the epic defeat of the Blue Jays I've sat down with two fans to discuss the ALCS.  Jose Crowtista had some interesting things to say.

It’s the final season for the Yankees Captain Derek Jeter!  If you don’t owe a Derek Jeter jersey I’d totally say this is the year to buy some!  Last season when Mariano Rivera retired I’ve made sure that I was able to pick up a home, road and All-star batting practice Jersey.  I’ve noticed there are currently four authentic Derek Jeter Jerseys for sale!  All four of these I’d say would be great for anyone’s personal collection.  Which Jersey should I buy and which ones do I think the Yankees would wear for a game?

The #2 with gold around it and the gold #2 Derek Jeter Jersey I’d consider more of a commemorative Jersey; however the road Jersey and the traditional pinstripe Jersey with Final season logo patch I hope the Yankees do wear towards the end of the season as they did for Mariano Rivera last year!  Mariano Rivera became the 1^st active MLB player to wear a retirement patch during his final games as New York Yankee! 

It’s only fitting that Derek Jeter becomes the 2^nd active MLB player to wear his final season logo during an actual game!

     I honestly don’t want super excited and celeberate that the Yankees have finished the month of April being in 1^st place for the AL East with a record of 15-11!  The Yankees did finish the Month of April 2013 being in second place with a slightly better record 16-10 and the Yankees ended up missing the playoffs!  I also would like to point out the following:

• The Yankees 1996 finished the Month of April 15-8 and were 1^st place within AL East!
• The Yankees 1998 finished the Month of April 17-6 and were 1^st place within AL East!
• The Yankees 1999 finished the Month of April 14-7 and were 1^st place within AL East!
• The Yankees 2000 finished the Month of April 15-8 and were 1^st place within AL East!
• The Yankees 2009 finished the Month of April 12-10 and were 3rd place within AL East!

We all know how the 5 seasons above ended with winning World Series Championships; however these 2014 Yankees are looking like the 2013 in some ways due to injuries!  Our opening day pitching starting rotation so far during the month of April have taken two major blows!  Ivan Nova is gone for the rest of the season due to Tommy John surgery!  Michael Pineda was suspended for 10 games due the obvious Pine tar incident and is now having back issues which will result to missing several weeks!

Things I do like about the 2014 Yankees!

I think it’s a great mixture of veterans and young talent!

Derek Jeter is back at being Derek Jeter!

Jacoby Ellsbury can hit, run, score & play the outfield well!

Mark Teixeira & Carlos Beltran are hitting for power!

Masahiro Tanaka throws a lot of strikes!

Dean Anna ,Yangervis Solarte & John Ryan Murphy have a lot of potential!

Ichiro Suzuki can still hit and play very well in the outfield!

Dellin Betances will be used a lot more innings during the season for relief!

David Robertson had certainly filled in the shoes taken over the closers role from the retired Mariano Rivera!

May Concerns:

Pitching!

Starting rotation! 

How well can the bullpen preform?

Is Brian Cashman going to make any trades?

Are we going to see more home runs from the Yankees offense?

I'm still shocked that the 2014 season will be Derek Jeter final season.  More than half of my life I've watched Derek Jeter play for the Yankees.  Derek Jeter is my all-time favorite baseball player!  I truly hope the Yankees allow him to leave in style.  Another World Series Championship would be a great note to retire on.  Thank you for everything Derek Jeter.  I truly wish you a lot of success in your post-baseball career.  

Hello fellow Yankees Fan,

  What a historical day for MLB and the New York Yankees.  Alex Rodriguez is suspended for the entire 2014 season (Including playoffs).  This means Brian Cashman has more money to spend on free agency!  The Yankees I personally feel were a much better team without Alex Rodriguez.  After all they did win 26 World Series championships without AROD!  

Let's focus on the Yankees ON the field!  Especially the one's that will win the Yankees their 28th World Series Championship!
