Halloween birthday cake idea submitted by:

This picture is my daughter's 5th birthday cake. She wanted a Halloween party, so that's just what she got.
She kept saying she wanted a pumpkin, but I knew it wouldn't be enough to feed everyone. So.... I made a 10 in 2-layer plus an 8 inch, 2-layer. I iced it green, and decorated it using different objects.
For the pumpkin on top I used Wilton's 3D ball pan and dabbed orange, yellow and green frosting onto it. I bought some little picks for the cake, but then what would I do for the ghost? It just so happened, I was looking at the Halloween candy in the store and they had ghost peeps! They were perfect! I put the peeps on a sucker stick and inserted them into the cake. I thought the ghost peeps added a nice touch. The spiders and spider webs were just piped on with black-colored butter cream icing.
My little girl loved her Halloween cake and so did her friends. It was definitely a huge hit and a party no-one will forget!
