Prep time: 10 min.
Baking time: 36 min.
Decoration time: 30 min.
Difficulty: Easy
What you'll need:
  • 1 bag STARBURST® Brand Original Fruit Chews
  • 1 bag SNICKERS® Brand Minis Bars
  • 1 box (18.25-oz.) yellow cake mix
  • 1 can (16-oz.) vanilla frosting
  • Red food coloring
  • 1 tube chocolate decorating frosting
  • Ribbon
  • 2 (8-inch) round cake pans
  • Resealable plastic sandwich bag
  • Spatula
  • Scissors
What to do:
  1. Prepare cake mix according to package instructions. Fold 2 cups of chopped SNICKERS® Brand Minis Bars into batter before pouring it into greased and floured pans.
  2. Bake in preheated 350-degree oven for approximately 33-36 minutes, or until inserted toothpick comes out clean. Cool completely.
  3. Spoon 1/2 cup of frosting into a resealable plastic bag. Tint the remaining frosting pink. Completely frost one layer with the pink frosting. Snip a small corner from resealable plastic bag and pipe a decorative edge around top edge of cake. Pipe a message on top of cake with chocolate frosting, shadowing the letters with white frosting.
  4. Unwrap 25 STARBURST® Brand Original Fruit Chews and soften half in microwave for 3-7 seconds. While soft, roll candy into a small rectangle, about 1 1/2 x 2-inches. Use scissors to snip a jagged end and pinch the other end. Using the photograph as a guide, arrange STARBURST® Brand Original Fruit Chews around outside of the cake. Using the ribbon, place a bow on the platter.
Tip: Freeze second cake layer for another time, or make a second cake for grandmother.
