Ron Fetch, Executive Pastry Chef and owner of Sweet Endings, recently decorated his pastry shop in honor of his hometown sports teams from Pittsburgh, Super Bowl XL and created a "torte tribute" to AFC Champions (and eventual winners of Super Bowl XL) the Pittsburgh Steelers.

#7 Ben Roethlisberger leads the way to the Fortieth Anniversary Super Bowl. With home-team advantage and wearing all white, this is a 3-layered white chiffon cake with white mousse filling and encased is poured white chocolate. Topped off with solid chocolate footballs (only out numbered by the NFL). |
All Hail the Champions! The Dynasty torte is befitting a championship football teams' legacy. A 4-layered tribute for football fans everywhere. Chocolate chiffon layers filled with alternating layers of white and dark chocolate mousse. Wrapped in black and gold (or other customized color) chocolate panels and topped with white chocolate shavings.
(Editor's note: It is just a coincidence that there are three chocolate footballs on top---one for each Steeler touchdown) |
"The Bus Stops Here"--- A Lemon Raspberry Torte. Lemon curd mousse levels the playing field between three layers of vanilla chiffon cake. Decked out in black and gold snapped chocolate panels, fresh whole raspberries and Steeler Stars, including Detroit's own, #36, Jerome Bettis. |
Steeler Tribute. Triple layer of chocolate chiffon cake sandwiching chocolate mousse filling, topped with XL portions of fresh fruit, apricot glaze and a "goal-line" finish of a gold ribbon.

(Right) A brown and gold chocolate band wraps up another victory with this "Hall-of-Fame" torte!
