SERVES 16 PREP AND COOK TIME 1 HOUR 30 MINUTES (+ COOLING TIME)

This cake is inspired by the original version published in the The Weekly’s famous Children’s Birthday Cake Book. We’ve made it even more simple to make by using White Wings Rich Chocolate Cake mix and CSR Vanilla Buttercream Icing mix.

2 x 535g packets White Wings Rich
Chocolate Cake mix
3 x 250g packets CSR All Natural Vanilla
Buttercream Icing mix
4 ice cream cones
1 empty matchbox
assorted sweets
1 ice-cream wafer toothpicks

1 Preheat the heat oven according to packet instructions.

2 Make cakes together according to directions on the packet. Spoon one quarter of combined mixture into a greased 25cm x 8cm bar tin; spoon remaining mixture into greased deep 20cm square cake tin, bake for 40 minutes for bar cake, 1 hour for square cake or until cooked when tested. Turn onto a wire rack to cool. If necessary, trim tops of cakes to give flat surfaces.

3 Make the icing mix according to packet instructions.

Place the square cake on a serving board; cut bar cake into four equal pieces, position one piece on each corner of square cake, as shown above, securing with a little icing. Place an upside-down ice cream cone in each corner. Cover
