I've just gone through the AWW kids party cakes version 2 and can't find anything like this.The nearest is an Icecream cake echidna decorated with the Ice Magic chocolate sauce that sets solid when cold so could be used as you suggest.

Are you unable to ask the 'birthday mother' for the recipe?

It is in the women's weekly book that also has the ice cream echidna. My book is packed in a box, but I have made it before. It is called "pinata". If I remember, you melt chocolate, line a bowl with glad wrap and pour the melted chocolate into the bowl - swirl it around and chill it to set. Bake a round cake, cut a bit of a hollow out of the top. Ice it with chocolate icing. Put a heap of those foil wrapped chocolat coins and other lollies into the hollow on the top. Turn the chocolate mould out over the top of the cake. Then melt a bit of chocolate and use it as "glue" to stick some really big smarties onto the outside of the chocolate shell. When you crack it with a hammer, you can see all the coins and treasure inside. My son had it for his 5th birthday and loved it!
