1 30 cm silver cake board
1 6 hole muffin tray
1 batch vanilla Stork Cream Icing

Decorations

1tin Caramel Treat
1 slab of chocolate
1packet chocolate Chuckles
1packet army figures and vehicles
1 Different shades of green food colouring
1 Light brown food colouring

Step by step method

  1. Preheat the oven to 180°C.
  2. Mix 1 batch of Stork Beat 'n Bake Cake and grease and line a 23cm square cake pan, and grease a 6 hole cupcake tray.
  3. Fill 4 of the cupcake holes 2/3 with Stork cake mix, and pour the rest of the mix into the lined cake tin.
  4. Bake the cupcakes for 15 minutes or until done, and the cake for 35 - 40 minutes or until done (skewer must come out clean). Turn onto a cake cooler to cool.
  5. When cool, using a sharp knife, slice the cake in half, to give 2 layers. Place the base of the cake in the centre of the cake board.
  6. Melt the slab of chocolate and beat together with the Caramel Treat.
  7. Spread the Caramel Treat on the cut side of the cake, then place the other half of the cake on top.
  8. Cut pieces off the 4 cupcakes so that they can stand on their sides, placing them back to back to form hills.
  9. Glue these on with remaining Caramel Treat mixture.
  10. Divide the vanilla icing into 4 equal portions. Colour them in different shades of green and a light brown.
  11. Fill a piping bag fitted with a star nozzle and pipe sections of colour onto the cake.
  12. Change the colour and pipe again until you have used the different colours and formed a camouflage design.
  13. Place the Chuckles around the base of the cake to edge it.
  14. Strategically place the army vehicles and figurines on and around the hills.
