This post is sponsored by the folks at Carvel. All comments and opinions are my own.

Guess what time it is? It’s time for some football baby!

As most of you know, we are huge football fans here at my house. My husband lives for this time of the year. I think he started the countdown for the first Alabama game sometime in July! The first games were this past weekend and of course we had friends over to watch the kickoff!

We had a big spread of tasty snacks…chips, dips, wings, all the usual football goodies. I also served up a couple of Carvel Game Ball cakes. You know that it’s a must-have at any football gathering! Yep, the Game Ball cakes are also back at Publix. When I saw them, I went ahead and picked up a couple in preparation for the game. Naturally they were a huge hit…this isn’t my first rodeo—I know how to make hungry football fans happy!

Have you seen Carvel Game Ball cake? It’s a football-shaped ice cream cake that’s made with layers of vanilla and chocolate ice cream, chocolate crunches and fresh whipped frosting. Yes, it tastes as good as it sounds.

Of course a couple of the boys at the party are also on Jeb’s football team and asked if I would be bringing them cakes this year. I have surprised them with cakes for the past couple of years so of course I talked to the coach and plan to surprise them with a little treat later this week to get them motivated for the season!

I love the fact that I can just pop over to the Publix bakery frozen case and pick up the cakes at my convenience. I don’t have to bother with a special order. I grab it when I shop for my weekly groceries and then I just store it in my freezer until I need it. It’s perfect for a home tailgate, kids parties or just to celebrate anytime!

The folks at Carvel are going to make it easy for you to grab a cake too. You can get a big savings when you  join the Crunchie Club! They will email you a huge $5 coupon so you can “score” a great deal for your upcoming get together!

AND…You guys who were here with me last couple of years might remember that I hosted a couple of weeks of giveaways for FREE Carvel Cakes. I am doing it again this year–woo hoo!

Ten readers will win a HUGE coupon that you can take to Publix to score a FREE cake. Each winner will get the following coupon –

  • FREE Carvel, OREO, or Hello Kitty Ice Cream Cake – max value $25

Entry is simple! You just need to complete the task below. You can also get two additional entries as well. I will choose the winners on Saturday and announce them on Sunday 9/9!

Let me hear your team spirit. If you don’t have a favorite football team…just leave a comment letting me know that you are rooting for a Carvel win!
