Camo Cake

Hey all! I'm sincerely sorry if his post is a little off, I'm blogging from my sister's itouh as mine is loading Diner Dash (boosh. Don't judge.) and she's on the laptop and I'm unable to get to another computer.
Anyway!
I wanted to share my utter excitement about he recent cake I made. That's right, you guessed it...it was a camouflage came! So much fun, man, for real. I made it for my uncle who runs an elk farm/hunting range with his little brother (and my other uncle). I wanted to do something fun that had to do with animals or hunting and this is what I came up with!
I mixed up a regular vanilla cake mix (I used the yokes, I think it helped get the colors I wanted) and then decided the mix evenly into three bowls. I added green food coloring to one, green, blue and yellow food coloring to another and brown and a little green to the last. It takes kind of a lot of food coloring but don't worry about it affecting the flavor, it doesn't. Then I just started plopping the different colors into two round cake pans. It's Camo so don't worry about how it mixes. When it came out I was a little scared about how the top looked, a little brown/tan. But once we cut it I was soo pleased! It was a lot of fun to make and it turned out great!
I'm afraid I can't add an image from the itouh, at least I don't know how to. I will add a picture as soon as possible!
Meanwhile, my Diner Dash is loaded!;)
love,
