Haunted House Cake
My granddaughter’s birthday is October 28th so we decided to have a Halloween birthday party. I baked a 13×9 vanilla cake and frosted it with chocolate fudge frosting. Then, I added a pumpkin patch with candy pumpkins and green butter cream frosting. I made cookie tombstones and a graveyard fence by dipping pretzels in melted chocolate and shaping them into a broken down fence. Read more about this Haunted House cake…
Zombie Cake
My friends grandson asked if he could have a zombie cake for his 9th birthday so she asked me to make it for him. I was over the moon about it I’d never made a zombie cake before and couldn’t wait to get started. I had to make the grave stone and cut in the letters RIP. Then, I set this aside. I then made the 1/2 torso in blue for the zombie and then attached some arms and then made the head and poked two holes for the eyes to be fitted later. I made two small balls for the eyes and set these aside too. Read more about this Zombie cake…
