On Your Mark...

This was for my son's 3rd Birthday.  We did 2 small parties with both our playgroups which worked out because I wasn't sure how I wanted to do the cake, the figure 8 or not.  So I tried both.  I baked 2- 9" round cakes and cut a small section out of one so the other cake could fit right up against it.  I then frosted the edges and pressed green dyed coconut against it.  For the top I placed 2 cups in the middle of the circles and then sprinkled crushed oreos around them.  I removed the cups and added more coconut.  I used tic-tacs for the road lines and his favorite cars for on top.


We also made candy cars using gum, hard candy, and starbursts.
This is the best picture I could find of the cars.
Happy Birthday Ethan!
