Coolest Fire Fighter Cake

I made this fire fighter cake for the cake walk at school. The little boys just loved it. I used the Wilton cake pan, then I outlined the entire cake with a small writing tip and gray icing. I then made 2 batches of icing, separating the icing into different bowls so I could color the icing different colors.

I used a star tip for the entire body. For the fire on sides of cake I took the remaining icing from the yellow and red placed it into a decorating bag and squeezed out the icing with upward motion. The colors blended to make the fire look real.

The face coloring was one dip of a tooth pick into the pink,brown and yellow coloring less is more so start off with a little and mix well remember the icing gets darker as it drys out. I used a store bought cake mix and add applesauce instead of oil to make it moist.

Taking a big star tip and icing I made the shell ruffle around the bottom to cover the flaws as well as outlining the entire cake again with a larger writing tip. This will make it stand out and pop like 3D.
