Scale

- 1 cup water
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 3 large eggs
- 1 container (16 oz) white frosting
- Red food coloring
- Piping bag and round tip
- Two 9-inch round cake pans
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Combine cake mix, water, oil, and eggs in a bowl; mix until smooth.
- Grease and flour two 9-inch cake pans. Divide batter evenly and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.

- Level cakes if needed. Place one layer on a serving plate and frost with white frosting. Top with the second layer and frost the entire cake.
- Mix a portion of white frosting with red food coloring. Fill a piping bag with red frosting and pipe baseball stitching onto the cake.
Notes
- Ensure cakes are completely cooled before frosting to prevent melting.
- Use a serrated knife to level cakes for a professional look.
- Chill the cake for at least 30 minutes after frosting to help the frosting set.
- Practice your baseball stitching pattern on parchment paper before piping onto the cake.
