Why should you buy a used cake pan on eBay?
- On eBay you'll find almost every cake pan that has ever existed
- You know exactly what you're getting (and you know it'll work... ;-)
- You'll probably use it only once, so why even think about buying a new one?!

Most 11 year old girls want cakes that are flowery dainty and pink. Well this 11 year old wanted Halloween party cakes as her birthday was on Halloween. So I did a witch's cauldron on skeletons with a graveyard below.
I started with a 12" square double layer cake frosted in gray buttercream. Then using a #10 writing tip with black icing, outlined grave stones in freehand making some fall and lean. The bottom border is green icing done with the grass tip. I then sprinkled orange edible glitter on the cake. The separator pillars are Wilton Pearl/Ball pillars covered in a large amount of white fondant using piping gel as glue.
Using my hands and a basic fondant molding tool I molded a skull and brushed on cocoa powder to make it tan and the powder gets in all of the nooks and crannies that a skull would have. I then used navy blue dusting powder to highlight the eyes, nose and mouth. The green 'goo' is piping gel colored green and dripped randomly around the cake.
Now for the cauldron. This was a 6" round double layer prepared on a 10" separator plate to ensure there is room for the fire. Instead of leveling off the top of the top layer I kept the rounded top using that as the bubbling middle. I frosted it black buttercream on the sides and orange for the cauldron contents and I used fondant molded bones to place in and around the cauldron. More green 'goo' drizzled as well as tan icing for more drippings. The fire was orange and red icing in a pastry bag done with a large star tip.
Sprinkle the entire cake with orange edible glitter and you're ready for Happy Haunting! Our Halloween party cakes were a great success and our daughter loved it!

This cake was prepared using three boxes of cake mix, two French vanilla and one box of chocolate cake mix. Each box of French vanilla cake mix was dyed, one purple and the other orange and to the chocolate cake mix I added a little black color to it. Color gel is found at any cake supply store, the brand is CK product color gel.
This cake was for decorating only with the idea I had in mind with the colors. It was very high and heavy, 9inch cake with thick slices. I think this would go down well for Halloween party cakes because it is so big. I recommend using Duncan Hines cake mix adding just one cup of water instead of 11/4 cup. Used buttercream frosting from
the local store.
