They have a packet mix they make up and cook before we arrive, we are given 12 caes to do. The 2 pink ones were my last 2. I used white RTI and food colouring You coud use ready made colours, but i wanted to try myself. My hands are ver colourful.

Here's the link to the recipe if anyone is interested: Cherryripe  mudcake by Pamela Clark

Even better chilled and eaten next day 
I didn't bother making chocolate panels....there's more than enough in the cake alone.
