Ideas for decorating cakes and other tasty treats

Halloween Cake Decorating Ideas

This is a clever twist on Halloween cake decorating ideas.  You can easily make this pumpkin cake by baking a cake and using a bundt cake pan.  For authenticity you can bake a pumpkin cake (my personal favorite).
While the cake is baking, you can prepare the stem.  Since I love marzipan, that’s what I would use, but you could also use fondant.  Whichever you choose, use food coloring to make it dark brown, then shape it into a pumpkin stem.
After you cake is baked and cooled, cover it with orange frosting.  My preference is for a dark orange, but go with whatever you prefer.  Next, insert the brown stem into the hole, right in the middle of the cake.  Last, use frosting to create green leaves and vines.  You now have a delicious pumpkin cake!
