How To Make A Fire Engine Cake

fire truck engine birthday cake

"Can I (excited gasp) have a firetruck cake for my birfday? With a ladder and, and (insert excited movements hither) and a fire hose?" Large smiles. This request came as no surprise, burn trucks and fire engines take pride of place in every game whether it be in the business firm, sandpit, bathroom or the car. There must be some sort of rescue vehicle present. Preferably a firetruck with a ladder but at a pinch a yellow taxi can pass every bit a rescue machine when back up is needed.

My infant male child is turning three! Which means this blog is also turning three. I posted the very first recipe when he was just one calendar week old. It is amazing how little things tin abound into big things in such a short space of time. While my now three twelvemonth old is a big male child and wants to practice everything himself, I am much the opposite. The bigger the website gets the more I am asking for help. Thus far I accept programmed, coded and debugged everything on the website, but I have now reached the stage that I am going to demand some help so hopefully within the adjacent few months the website volition have a bit of a makeover to brand information technology run smoothly on all devices.

This cake serves xx, you can scale it up if you want to serve more.
