- Cream the butter and the sugar together until light and fluffy.
- Whisk the eggs until they are bubbly.
- Slowly – while mixing – add the eggs and the flour gradually.
- Put the mixture into the tin and bake for around 10-15 mins until a skewer or fork comes out clean.
Decoration – for the mummy cakes:
- Make sure your cakes are flat on top, you may need to shave the top off to make them flat.
- Roll out some white fondant icing next to some black fondant icing (also rolled out.)
- Cut the black and the white into strips.
- Put one black strip in the middle of the cake then layer the white strips on top.
- For the eyes, make tiny round white circles and put 2 even smaller black circles on top.
- Place the eyes onto the black strip of icing and that is the mummy cakes done!
Decoration – for the spider web cakes:
- Make sure your cakes are flat on top, you may need to shave the top off to make them flat.
- Roll out some green and black fondant icing.
- Cut the green icing into circles (big enough to cover the top of the cake.) Place the green circles on to the top of the cake.
- Now cut the black icing into very thin strips and copy the picture of the cakes above!
Happy Halloween!
