For the Cake:
Hand mix the cocoa, eggs, water and oil in a bowl,.
Pour some of the batter into a large sized (8\") baking bowl and the remaining into a medium (5\") baking bowl.
Bake at 350F: 60 minutes for the larger bowl, 30 minutes for the smaller bowl.
After cooling, remove the cakes from the bowls, cut a hole into the larger cake and fill with the marshmallow cream frosting.
For the Frosting:
In a stand mixer, mix butter.
Add the marshmallow cream; mix again.
Add the powdered sugar, mix again.
For the Assembly:
Place the larger cake upside down on a cake stand; this is the bottom base of the snowman.
Cover with the marshmallow frosting.
Cover the smaller cake (the snowman's head) with the marshmallow frosting and set on top of the bottom/larger cake; you may need to use a small round cardboard as a base to the head so it doesn't slide off.
Cover the snowman with coconut flakes.
Pipe little pupils, using the white icing, on the candy-coated chocolates; then place them down, forming the eyes.
Add the chewing candy on the face, forming the nose.
Add the mini chocolate balls, forming the mouth.
Place the sweet & tart chews on the body, forming the buttons.
And wrap the strawberry sour belts around the neck, forming the scarf.
