FIRETRUCK CAKE!!!

My nephew, James (Fernando), spent his second birthday requesting "MORE FIRE!!!" on his cake as we lit the candles and the entire next year falling in love with firetrucks, ambleeances, and popo cars. He proved his love and devotion for firetrucks by watching the "How to Make a Firetruck Birthday Cake" on "YouTuve" updwards of 263 times.  Not counting the 52 additional times we watched it together to make this cake.  The result, one pretty fancy edible firetruck and one very happy birthday boy.  it was the big THREE, so we wanted to make sure his cake was the coolest on the block. Instructions and ingredients are all found in the video. also worth noting: the highly-saturated red paint job required no less than three full bottles of red food coloring.
