How to Make a Hummer Truck Cake

Lots of people would love to have a Hummer truck cake for their birthday, including those in the military, car enthusiasts and kids who like cars or the Army. Since the Hummer has a pretty boxy shape, making a cake that looks like one is not very hard. Even if you're not an experienced pastry chef, you should be able to pull it off. Feel free to use a picture of a Hummer to help you with authenticity. Add this to my Recipe Box.

Instructions

Instructions

    1

    Bake any flavor of cake (using a box or your own recipe) in a 9-by-13-inch pan. Then bake a second one in a 9-inch square pan. Pull the cakes out of their pans and put them on cooling racks for one hour. Use a knife to shave off any areas on each cake that aren't perfectly flat.

    2

    Put the larger cake on your cake board so that one of the 13-inch sides is facing you. Frost its top and sides with vanilla icing, after adding food coloring to make the hue you'd like for the body of your Hummer. (Just put the icing in a bowl and stir it in.) Before the icing has a chance to harden, put the smaller cake on top of it, matching one of its edges to the far left edge of the bottom cake.

    3

    Frost the top and sides of the smaller cake so that they match the bottom one. The shorter side of the cake is the hood of the Hummer and the back is the cab. You are looking at it in profile.

    4

    Take two Moon Pies and cut them exactly in half. These will be the tires for your Hummer. (You only see half of each tire, since the rest will appear to be buried in the "dirt.") Stick one on each side of the hood piece of the Hummer and the other two on the cab side. The flat half should touch the cake board.

    5

    Put chocolate icing in your piping bag and use the line tip to draw windows, doors and a license plate on the Hummer.

    6

    Frost the cake board with additional chocolate icing. Then top it with graham cracker crumbs to create the dirty and dusty terrain the Hummer is driving through.
