Swensen's Ice Cream Cake

Mikaail turned 12 last December and we held a small birthday party for him and got him a Swensen's ice cream cake with a picture of a car.  The closest we could get him was a red car though he wanted a blue car. Though he cant see the difference in the colours, we explained to him that there was only red car in the ice cream cake catalogue.


This was the 2nd time we bought an ice cream cake from Swensens and had it delivered.  The difference this time was we did not store the cake in the freezer as we were told that the cake will last 6 hours without refrigeration.  They should have said to lightly heat up the cake!  It was really tough to cut the cake - like using a knife to cut ice.

Family official cake cutter - Jaye - having ago at cutting the ice cream cake with a cake knife then a chopper!   Then my brother in law, Andy, had a go at cutting the cake as well.

The cake was really yummy and though everyone had a generous piece, we still had leftovers!  If ever I order a cake from Swensen's, I will have to remember to ask them how to actually cut the cake as it really is almost impossible to cut the ice cream cake nicely.
