I was worried I wouldn't be able to execute this but I followed the directions and everything went great. Using two boxes of cake mix, I made three cars and one mini car (using two mini loaf pans) so my son could have his own smash cake. So very cute and lots of fun to make. I would suggest using a bread knife or piece of thread to shave off a little bit of the top of your cake loaf if it is too rounded. My were a bit wobbly so I cut a little bit off the curved top before assembling. This made the car a bit more stable. I also piped chocolate frosting around the windows instead of using licorice to outline.

i spent some time in the decorating. my cakes didnt rise much so they also had the race car look. when i frosted them i made the windows first then did the rest of the car. around the windows i put frosting in a ziplock baggie and snipped the end to get in between the windshield. i think they turned out pretty good. my boss loved them and asked me to make them for her son's birthday.

It was one of my frist cakes I did. It turned out ok my 2 year old nephew loved them. I would definatly use two cake mixes so they don't end up looking like racecars. I also had problems getting them both the same shape and cake crubs getting into the frosting.

I made two of these cakes (4 cars total) for my sons third birthday, and they were a huge hit. I would definitely make them again. The recipe was very easy to follow, and modify if you like. I liked that I didn''t have to go out and buy a special pan for this project, and it was very fun to decorate. I would highly recommend this cake to anyone.
