This fire-red confection is a three-alarm wonder at any birthday party.
What you'll need
- 1 baked 13-by-9-by-2-inch cake
- 6 cups red frosting
- 1 cup gray frosting
- Red M&M's
- Chocolate sandwich cookies
- Pretzel rods and sticks
- Yellow gumdrops
- Black jelly bean
- White Chiclets
- Mini jawbreakers
- Black shoestring and twist licorice
How to make it
Freeze the cake for two to three hours, then cut into four pieces (A, B, C and D).
Slice B in half horizontally to create E.
Stack A onto D for the engine bed, B onto C for the cab, and E onto D for the control panel.
Frost the bed and cab red and the controls gray. With a dab of frosting, place an M&M in the center of each cookie to make the wheels, then press onto the engine.
Add a pretzel ladder, gumdrop emergency lights, jelly bean horn, Chiclet headlights and jawbreaker controls. Use licorice to make a hose and outline the windows of the cab.
