Easy Halloween Party cake!

Frankenstein!!!!


It is always nice to make something soooo simple but looks amazing for a party.  Don't you agree?

While searching the internet I came across a cake that is simple but looks so cool for Halloween and it is a Frankenstein Cake.
Monster Cake

It comes from Betty Crocker and all it is is a box cake with a certain kind of food coloring.

What you will need:
  • Box Cake
  • White Frosting (save some white frosting for the eyes)
  • Green neon gel food coloring (Betty Crocker sells it)
  • Black decorating frosting from a tube (or black food coloring and piping utensils)
  • Black Licorice (for the 3D looking eyebrows)
  • Pull apart Black Licorice (if you want to use for the mouth and nose instead of frosting)
It's so easy.

Just bake the cake and while your waiting just mix the frosting with the neon dye to get it to the color you need.  Let the kids help you with this!  Wait for the cake to cool.

Hint - If your cake didn't cook completely flat just flip it upside down.  You can cut the middle raise part of the cake off and feed it to the kids (or yourself).  But flipping the cake will give you the flat part that you need to make it look like the picture.

After the cake is completely cooled, DECORATE!

People at your party will be so amazed, but it was as easy as a making a boxed cake!

Happy Halloween !!!!
