The Pink Fire Truck

Ian's Birthday was yesterday and when I told him we were going to make a cake he said he wanted a Fire Truck cake.
I found a picture on Kraft Canada and asked Joe to pick up the things I needed. Ian and I made the cake in the morning and while he was playing I cut it up in the shape of the truck.
When Joe got home I decorated it but had a little trouble with tinting the Cool Whip. I used a whole bottle of red food coloring with a couple of drops of blue and still ended up with a pink Fire Truck. I think I sould have made a yellow one.
Last night Ian told my sister that he had a pink Fire Truck cake and when she asked why he said "because I like pink". Lucky for me right?

Hey nothing wrong with a pink fire truck.....in fact a pink fire truck would get noticed more than a red one. Ian looks like he really liked it too. Hope he had a great day.

Happy Birtday Ian!

How cute!! Great job on the cake, it's so hard to get red though! But, it's a good thing he likes pink :o)
