EASY GHOST HALLOWEEN CAKE

Ever wondered how to make ghost cake? Today I'm sharing how to make a super cute ghost cake that is as colorful as it it simple to make. Best part is there is no baking involved. We will start off with store-bought freezer cakes for this easy tutorial. To get started with this fun Halloween cake, you will need two small square shaped coconut cakes put together or any rectangle shaped cake with white icing. 

You can choose to decorate the top or the bottom first. It's your choice. I liked to make the face first since that can be more challenging and you want to nail it. I had to make a second try because my first face was awful, so my suggestion is to keep yours super simple. I love how the super minimalist style turned out. To make the eyes, I used Sparkle Gel to make two small oval shaped yes. 

To finish the eyes, use small candy eyes turned backwards and place on the upper left corners of the black icing eyes.

Then, the mouth is a very small upturned line. Such a cute little smile to make the cake sweet and fun.

Next, it's time to tackle the top of the cake. Use Orange Gumballs to form the bag handle. 

Then, is my favorite part! We're using an assortment of Color It Candy colors and candies at the bottom of the top cake to represent Halloween candy. I loved using Sixlets in colors like Dark Purple, Shimmer Lavender, Shimmer Orange, Shimmer Lime Green, and for size variety, the addition of Black Pearls.

Add in a variety of candy eyes for an added festive touch to the trick or treat "candy".

The final thing to do? Line the bottom of the cake with White Gumballs to give it a cool ghost vibe.

Once you put all of these simple touches onto your base cake, it's ready to serve immediately. If you plan to serve it later, keep the ghost cake refrigerated.

See? I told you this such an easy Halloween ghost cake to make! You can whip this up in about twenty minutes flat. This is about one the most amazing Halloween cakes you can find with very little effort. This recipe idea is perfect for kids to help make, too. No baking required!
