Mud cake hacks for instant decadence

Woolworths mud pie is popular for its rich, moist texture and great taste. With some quick and creative tweaks, you can turn it into an impressive dessert.

Bluey & Bingo cake

This viral mud cake hack makes two popular cartoon characters: Bluey or Bingo. It only takes a few steps: Cut the cake into the right shapes, spread it with rich buttercream (blue for Bluey and tan for Bingo) and decorate.

Flower power cake

You will need three white cupcakes (or sponge cakes) for this beautiful girly cake. Cut off the top of the cakes so they are flat, then stack them on top of each other with whatever filling you like – frosting, buttercream, or even original slushie frosting. Decorate with pink buttercream and fondant daisies.

Loaded mud pie

This bright and fun looking cake is a very easy and quick hack. As with the flower cake above, cut the tops of the cakes so they are flat, then stack them with whatever filling you like – frosting, buttercream or even original mud cake frosting. Before putting the cake in the freezer to cool and harden, surround it with rows of chocolate or caramel chocolates. When it’s done, cover the top with rainbow colors using the sweet treats of your choice.

Cake for trucks and excavators

This cake will impress any construction-enthusiastic child. You will need two chocolate cakes, buttercream, cookie pieces and crumbs and decorations. It’s a simple stacked cake covered in buttercream and decorated with machines.

Pink glitter cake

With three mud cakes of different flavors, lots of glitter and pink decorations, you can create any pink-loving child’s dream cake.

Sponge cakes for spectacular results

If mud cakes aren’t quite your preference, Woolworths sponge is another excellent base for your dessert creations. Check out these hacks.

Epic drip cake

For this you will need two vanilla sponges, dulce de leche, Tim Tams and buttercream. The finished result looks like it came straight from a cake cafe. If you want to switch up the colors, you can make a chocolate buttercream and use white chocolate ganache for the drizzle.

Hidden sweet treats

This cake has a surprise inside. Cut out a rough circle from the center of the cookies and stack them on top of each other. Then fill the inside with various small edibles. Decorate the exterior as you wish. People will be in for a big surprise when they cut the cake and reveal the hidden treats.

Dramatic musical cake

This is another simple cake. It uses vanilla sponge cake, but if you prefer, you can use a fluffy chocolate sponge instead. Decorated with buttercream and an edible printed photo, this cake will give you great ideas for your next party.

Magic mini cakes

Using a range of Woolies Mini Cakes as the main cake toppings, plus a lovely buttercream, gold color and rice paper sheet, you’ll have a whimsical cake fit for a princess.
