Cartoon Synopsis:

Beetle and Zero are summoned to the kitchen by Sergeant Snorkle. The sergeant orders Beetle and Zero to stay in the kitchen of Camp Swampy, and not to interfere with General Halftrack's birthday party, as he doesn't want anything to go wrong. Wanting to do something nice for the commanding officer, the boys try to create a big birthday cake for the general- a cake large enough for the entire base. To increase the recipe, they add yeast to the batter. A little goes a long way, and they decide to increase it even further to ensure that they have enough cake. They end up using too much yeast in their dough, and, before long, the base is covered with wall-to-wall birthday cake. General Halftrack is thrilled to see a cake big enough to have rockets for candles.
