Notes

We used accessories from the Monster Jam Ultimate Arena Playmat to decorate this cake. You can get creative and use a Hot Weels Monster Truck that includes a crushed diecast car or other monster truck accessories, if you like.
If you don’t have a Whiplash Monster Jam truck, any of your favorite monster trucks will do.
