Ingredients:

  • 1 packet - Vanilla/butter cake mix

  • Ingredients that cake mix requires (usually milk, eggs, butter)

Method:

  1. Gather ingredients, pre-heat the oven (per packet instructions) and boil the kettle

  3. While the jelly is setting, make the cake mix according to the instructions on the packet - make sure you add the green dye! Bake in the recommended container for the recommended time.

  4. While the cake is cooking, make up the whipped cream using the thickened cream, vanilla, and icing sugar. Whisk until soft peaks form

  5. Store the whipped cream in the fridge until everything is ready to be put together

  6. Once the cake is cool, cut it into small cubes, then store in the refrigerator

  8. Once the jelly is set, run the tip of a knife through the jelly to make small cubes
