Coolest Halloween Cake Idea

I made this Halloween Cake Idea for Halloween 2009, it went down a treat so I thought I’d share the idea with everyone. First I made 2 plain Victoria sponges, one 12″ and one 8″ rounds, (when they are both mixed up I used a tiny drop of red food colouring and swirled it into the mixture, do not mix in properly, this then gives a marble effect when u cut the cake).

Cut them in half and fill with jam, then cover both with orange icing and place the smaller one on top of the larger one. With some black icing I rolled up a ball, and used a little skeleton head I bought from a card shop, then placed that on top of the ball and used strips of black icing to drape over it to create a long Reepers cape and hood.

To finish the cake off I used black writing icing to create a spooky picture all the way around the cake. Draw on twiggy branched trees and crooked fences and lastly a haunted castle of course!! And there u have a Halloween cake.
