Ingredients:
– 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
– 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
– 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
– 4 large eggs
– 1 cup buttermilk
– 2 teaspoons baking powder
– 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
– Red and black gel food coloring

Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease and flour a firetruck-shaped cake pan. Alternatively, you can use a rectangular cake pan and carve out the firetruck shape after baking.

2. In a bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add in the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.

3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and baking soda. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the buttermilk, until well combined into a smooth batter.

4. Divide the batter into two portions. Tint one portion red using the gel food coloring until you achieve a vibrant red hue. Transfer the red batter into one side of the cake pan.

5. Tint the remaining portion of batter black using the gel food coloring. Carefully pour the black batter into the other side of the cake pan to create the distinct separation between the firetruck and the road.

6. Bake the cake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.

7. Once the cake has cooled, you can get creative with decorating the firetruck! Use red frosting to cover the red part of the cake to represent the firetruck body. Add details like windows, wheels, and a ladder using black and white frosting. Let your imagination run wild!

8. For an extra touch of excitement, you can add some edible decorations like small candy flames or firefighter figures to bring the scene to life.
