Today my little guy turned 4...what a day?? I baked two cakes, a 10 inch and another 6 inches and used the store brought cake mix. and the new Wilton colored mist to decorate the sides and mini chocolate chips for the dirt road and then green colored sugar for the grass.I had the set for CARS 2 toy which came with the cars in it along with the place mat, which I forgot to use.
To make the store brought cake not taste like store brought, use a few tricks and no one can tell that it the cake is baked from out of the box. I do not like the smell of eggs in the cake, so I use only one egg per box and sometimes none at all. I also substitute water with store brought Buttermilk and use jams as fillings for the unique taste.
The icing for this cake is my regular whipped cream icing,
** Whipped Cream icing can be made by using simply Heavy Whipping Cream and Conf Sugar,, The Rec is as
Follows..
One Cup heavy Whipping Cream
Half Cup Conf Sugar
**One packet Instant pudding mix. OR
IF desired One Packet Unflavored Gelatin dissolved in water.
Take a bigger bowl and keep some ice cubes in that.. Over the cubes place anr bowl. Take one cup cream and add sugar and Gelatin/ Pudding mix( if needed )... and beat with electric mixer for about 5-7 mins on medium till soft peaks are on the blade. The icing is ready.
Hope you enjoy this cake as much as I enjoyed baking it.
