I made this cake a couple of ways. I tested using Monster soda in the batter like the weight watchers use a spice cake with a 12 oz can of diet coke. The cake actually tasted like Monster soda. Then I tried to compact pieces of it into a large baked beans can because the cake was so airy it wouldn't stack without crumbling. Compacting the cake into it made the finished cake (batter) feel and taste pretty much like Playdough and unedible. However, the look of the cake was a "Monster" of a hit with the teens. July 2010
