- Make six 8" round cakes using your favorite mix or possibly buy cakes from a bakery.
- Buy two or possibly three dollars worth of dry ice from an ice cream store the day you will need it. Keep the dry ice in freezer. Be sure to handle the dry ice with gloves or possibly tongs just to be safe. f your ice cream store doesn't have dry ice just look in your local Yellow Pages telephone directory under
- "Dry Ice". It's wasy to find everywhere.
- Now use your juice glass or possibly cookie cutter and cut out a hole in the center or possibly the top two layers of cake. This hole will form a well in the center of the cake and hide the special effect.
- Now construct the Volcano cake, round pyramid style, on a cake platter or possibly large dish. Trim each layer into seccessively smaller rounds and stack and frost them into mountain shape using the last two layers with the holes as its top.
- With a small piece of aluminum foil, line the well in the center of the volcano cake. Use the juice glass as a mold and form foil around the glass.
- Now frost the cake, smoothing out the small step-like ledges. Use chocolate frosting for the whole cake first. Then use green frosting as highlights around the mountain to resemble vegetation.
- When you are ready to serve the cake, make the "lava". Separate the cleaned egg and throw away the yolk. Put the egg white in a small mixing bowl with 1 1/2 tsp. sugar and 2-3 drops red food coloring. Beat till the egg white starts to thicken. You do not want stiff peaks to create, just a thick, foamy texture.
- Now place two or possibly three small chunks of the dry ice into the foil-lined well of the cake and pour in the red egg mix. Nothing much will happen yet.
- Now fill your juice glass with warm tap water and take the Volcano Cake and water to the table where yyour guests are. When you are ready to produce the Special Effect, simply pour one or possibly two ounces of the warm water into the egg and dry ice mix and your realistic Volcano Cake will erupt large quantities or possibly orange, foamy "lava" and white "smoke" for several min while you serve your delighted guests pcs of genuine Erupting Volcano Cake.
- Alternate Foam Generating Technique: If you cannot find dry ice in your area, you can still produce the foaming "Lava" effect. There will be no smoke, but you will have plenty of foamy lava. You will need a small, short juice glass or possibly a shot glass which will fit snugly in the center of the Volcano Cake (a glass 3" tall and 1 1/2" in diameter would be perfect). You will also need one small box of Jell-o, one small bottle lemon juice and 1 Tbsp. of bicarbonate of soda. Make Jell-o according to package directions. Let cold 15 min. When jello is still (not warm), fill juice glass 1/2 full with the hot jello. Pour in sufficient lemon juice so which the glass is almost full, or possibly about 1/2" from the top. Place glass down into hole in the cake so lip of glass is flush with top of cake. You are now ready to produce the effect. When ready, put 1 Tbsp. of bicarbonate of soda into the glass and briefly stir (1-2 seconds). Jello foam will immediately pour out the top of the glass and flow down the sides of the cake.
