A little late in posting this, but I needed a rest. It was my son's birthday this past weekend and had it at the Eagle Fork Pumpkin Patch. Such a great place to have a birthday party. He wanted a camo/army them party and that's what I gave him..anything for my kids.
The cake is two tiered with the bottom layer being white and chocolate cake and the cake batter being camo on the inside as you will see in the pictures below. The top layer was an orange cake with pureed mandarin oranges. Along with the cake I made a cookie platter with camo/army.
The the camo cake batter all you need to do is use your favorite white cake recipe(might need to make double) and divide it in half. I left one white and the other I colored moss green to give it the army color. For the chocolate, again use your favorite chocolate cake recipe(you might have to double) and divide in half. Leave one half chocolate color and the other I colored black with food color. Then just spoon the different color cake batter in different spots in the cake pan until half or a little over a half full. Do not swirl the batter once in the pan. Bake as normal.
Happy Birthday Tanner!
I cannot believe your 6 already.
