11x15 1/2 chocolate/ 1/2 yellow boxed cake mix (with added pudding), buttercream dream frosting. I used Wilton spray red coloring to get the tint on the top. The figures are cut from a plastic High School Musical cup. The other is a candle that I bought. I have 2 single layer cakes frosted in similar style to allow each birthday child their own cake to blow out a candle (and to make sure we had enough cake).
