Heat oven to 350 degrees. Grease bottom and sides of 13x9 inch pan and lightly flour, or spray with baking spray with flour. Make cake as directed on box, using water, oil and eggs. Pour into pan. Bake as directed on box. Cool 10 minutes; remove from pan to cooling rack. Cool completely, about 1 hour.

Use toothpicks to mark sections of cake to be cut. Use serrated knife to cut cake into sections.


On tray, place largest piece. Place 1-1/2 inch strip of cake along top edge of jeans; cut off excess. Place triangles along outer edges of legs. Cover; freeze 1 hour or until firm.

Tint frosting with blue food color. Remove cake from freezer; frost sides and top of cake. Use fork or decorating comb to create fabric texture.
