Rated 5 out of 5 by mamacolabear from I did a variation of this cake. I did a variation of this cake. For my son's first birthday we had a "Cowboy" themed party. Instead of a GOLF look, I used plastic farm animals (pigs, cows, horses) and blue jello. I cut a "lake" out of one side of the cake only and put some crumbs (or feed) on the other side and had the animals "eating" the feed or had the pigs rolling in the "mud" (chocolate icing) Oh, and I shortened the recipe by using Chocolate Frosting instead. Everyone who seen the cake was amazed that I did this on my own. I had even posted pics of it in one of my online groups and they were all amazed as well! This is an AWESOME, easy to do, FUN cake with AWESOME results!!!!

Rated 4 out of 5 by Schiebercooking from I liked this recipe as it was but i made several changes. I liked this recipe as it was but i made several changes. Nobody except for me likes lime jello, so i changed the jello to berry blue, and i made it like a lake. Then i used dark green icing, and iced the whole cake. I went over some parts to make the greens with lighter green icing, i still used the marshmallows and the flags, and the sand bunker, but i also made tee boxes, i cut circular fruit snacks in half! this recipe was so cool my little brother loved it! thanks!

Rated 5 out of 5 by planning a wedding from Have you ever seen a grown man jump up and down and clap his hands in delight? Have you ever seen a grown man jump up and down and clap his hands in delight? Want to? Make your hubby this cake for his birthday. Mine is a golf freak and let me tell you, he enjoyed the cake more than his gifts and considering I bought him an Xbox, that's pretty crazy! He was so happy with this cake I got out of doing the dishes....ON HIS BIRTHDAY. Keep coming up with the great ideas, the more times I don't have to do dishes the better lol.

Rated 5 out of 5 by bjake10 from I changed this recipe quite a bit. I changed this recipe quite a bit. I scooped out two small areas for water hazards and used blue raspberry jello, and put some of the "golf balls" in the water hazards. I frosted the cake in three shades of green...lightest on the actual green and the darker green tints for the rough. I added a small golfer that I found in a party goods store. This cake was such a hit with the golfers in our neighborhood!

Rated 4 out of 5 by shelbysmommy from This makes a great pirate themed b-day cake as well. This makes a great pirate themed b-day cake as well. Use blue jello instead of the green for an ocean and and put it only on side of the cake. The rest of the cake is then sand for a beach and the land. You can then put a little pirate ship on the water & can even drop in some gummy worms or gummy octopus candy in the jello for ocean effects. Graham cracker crumbs are great as sand too.

Rated 5 out of 5 by nanmck1 from This was so fun to make. This was so fun to make. My son is a fisherman, so, I used the blue raspberry jello for water. Went to the Wilton outlet and got a fisherman with pole and assorted fish. Frosted it like in the recipe. He really got a kick out of it.

Instead of jello I used vanilla pudding and used food coloring to make it green. I used a blue fruit roll up and made a water hazard. The pudding seemed to go better with cake then jello.

Only instead of Cool Whip, I made green buttercream frosting and used the lime jello. It was so easy to make and fun. Only problem is where to store the cake in the frig.
