Halloween Cakes HELP PLEASE!!

Post by halloweenLuv » Thu Aug 12, 2010 9:58 pm

Hello everyone, As the Halloween season is approaching also is my wedding. I am getting married October 30th and we are wanting to do a Halloween wedding cake and are having a hard time finding one. If possible if anyone has any pictures they can post or know of any websites PLEASE let me know!
When Black cats prowl, and pumpkins gleam,
May luck be yours on Hallowe'en.

You might have a hard time finding a decorator who would do these. If you have any culinary schools locally, some of the students might like to take it up for the challenge and experience.

I made a halloween cake a few years back that was SIC!!! Everyone LOVED it!! Its to small for a wedding cake but you could do personal cakes for each table or make it a topper on sheet cakes decorated as a grave yard or something cool like that.heres what I did:

Take 2 big bunt cake pans and make two cakes
put the bottom one upside down and poke straws through it,then cut the access off the straws.(makes it able to hold the weight of the top cake more easily.
stack the other on ontop rightside up
there will obviously be a hole in the middle of the top cake because its a bunt cake,put a wafer icecream cone in the hole for a stem
then use fondant to cover it,well I iced it but fondant would hold better and look nicer.And then decorate it!! It looked amazing!!
You don't even know the danger you're facing
If I'm quiet, I'll slide up behind you
And if you hear me I'll enjoy trying to find you

If you're anywhere near Baltimore, maybe you can get Duff from Ace of Cakes to do a Halloween cake... I bet that would be pretty awesome...!

It would be incredibly expensive. His fondant sells at Michaels for over $30. And cake tattoos for $19.99. And they don't taste good. We accidentally dropped one and then tried it.

I don't know where your wedding will be, but I'm actually a cake decorator and Halloween cakes are my favorite to make (duh!) I've never had the chance to make a Halloween wedding cake but would love to do yours if you are close to me!

Are you sure floor-doh is an accurate representation of the product?

It was accidentally dropped on the desk in the office with some forks nearby.

You know, part of me likes the skeleton bride and groom, but then, I'm also thinking that if I were getting married, I'm not sure I'd be too keen on having too much death imagery. I'd maybe go more with pumpkins, bats, and black cats... Marriages have enough trouble surviving without corpsifying things right from the start! :?

Spiders are a good theme, don't their webs symbolize eternity and strength or whatnot?
