"Under Construction" Birthday Cake

This past weekend we had the chance to celebrate my twin nephews birthday. My mother in law wanted to do a fun construction cake for them, so after we did a search on pinterest and google we decided how we wanted this cake to look and started. My mother in law was kind enough to do all the baking, the decorating was up to me.

 This is what I had to work with and I got to work immediately. :)

 I used chocolate graham crackers crushed up for the dirt and the oreo's for the darker dirt.

  We wanted to add orange construction cones but zurchers was all sold out. My mother in law found these orange kaleidoscope instead and so we thought we'd try them.

The twin absolutely loved their cake and so did their brothers. :) It was a lot of fun making it.
