"Diggy" Cake

For this Grave Digger cake you will need:

1 box cake mix
1 box gram crackers
pkg of red twizlers
1 can of white icing
food coloring
fruit roll ups
4 big donuts
tin foil
cookie sheet

Make a sheet cake 13x9, let cool, prepare cookie sheet crush grahmcrackers for dirt road. Cover the cake mix box with tin foil to give your monster truck some lift. Cut the cake to lay on top of covered cake box and then a piece to put on the back to create the cab of truck.

Tint your icing with food coloring. I used green and red & blue to make purple. Ice your truck the best you can. Cut up fruit roll ups to make flames, decorate with Twizzlers. Use tin foil for the windows on the truck.

I didn't do this but you could cut out a small picture of your kid to look like he is the driver - cool!!! Attach big donuts with tooth pics to complete the look with big tires!

You could buy a prop for $3.99 at Wal-mart a little monster truck to add some wow factor have fun!
