Are you looking for a Mother's Day Dessert Idea? This chocolate cake topped with strawberry roses is an edible garden. Since my mom loves gardening and eating new desserts, this chocolate garden cake is a great Mother's Day gift idea. All you need is Betty Crocker's cake mix and icing, crushed OREO's, pretzel rods, strawberries, blueberries and grapes. It's so much fun to build this chocolate garden cake and it's kid friendly.

Check out the close-up of this creative Mothers Day cake disguised as a garden! I crushed up OREO cookies to look like soil. And, I love that the planter box is made of pretzel rods.

I want to spend as much time as I can with my mom, so to speed things up a bit I'm using Betty Crocker's Devil's Food chocolate cake mix and chocolate icing.
