This eyeball cake is made from the Wilton sports ball pan. I baked the cake and decorated it like an eyeball. I used Wilton icing and also used Jell-O around the bottom to give it a more realistic look. This cake is great for a Halloween party.
It was my husband’s birthday. He had never had a Halloween cake so he chose this eyeball cake. I found a Pyrex mixing bowl that you could bake in. It was the perfect shape and used only one cake mix. It was Red Velvet, with White Icing. For the color I used the blue pre-mixed … Read more
This science lab cake was for a leaving party for someone who worked in my lab. So just to say good buy I made a replica of his lab bench (or as near to it as I could get!!) I started off making 2 massive chocolate cakes in a rectangle tin and then cut them … Read more
