So this past weekend our church
held their annual
FALL FESTIVAL.
OF COURSE I volunteered for
the CAKE WALK!
I was responsible for turning
on and off the TUNES as people
trotted around the circle of numbers
hoping to win the coveted CAKE prize!
On....off.
Ooooonnnnnnnnn. Off
I LOVED IT!
Sometimes, I even got to PICK the
precious WINNING NUMBER!
Knowing that I was volunteering for the
CAKE WALK, I felt compelled to make a
COOL CAKE for everyone to fight over.
And cupcakes...more on those a different day.
I wanted to do something fun for the kids, kinda
thinking Halloween but not toooo Halloween-ie ya know?
So I made this fun Monster Cake
I found on PINTEREST originally made by Makoodle.
 |
| I used covered MARSHMALLOWS for the eyes to save time, not cakeballs like the original cake from Makdoodle. |
I have to say THANK GOLLY
for PINTEREST, especially when
I am short on my creative JUICE flow.
Please visit Makoodle for the EASY how-to
and tell her I sent you!

That monster cake is on one of my pinboards!! I must be a big kid at heart!! xo
So cute! Love that you dipped the marshmallows in candy melts. Very smart! Great job decorating the cake.
P.S. Glad you have so much fun at your Cake Walk
So, so cute!!! I'm sure it will be well fought over at the cake walk!

This is simply adorable!!! My son would go crazy for this...you did a great job :)
I love this cake! I like the use of marshmallows even better than the cake pops!
That's really goul-able. Thanks for sharing your fun. The cake walk kind.

I love this, it's so cute and I love the marshmallows on top. My kids would love these as they aren't huge fans of cake pops ( I see a treat day treat!)
This made me remember the yearly "carnival" over at Milliken Park, with the cake walks on the "stage" in the gym; remember those? Great post, per usual.
Oh my, you did a fabulous job!! I'll bet the lucky winner is so happy!!! Love that you used the marshmallows, too...great idea!!!
I love the cake. I'm sure there were plenty of orange faces running around. Erika and I can't wait until we have out tea party with you and Sophia. We should plan that this Fall. Take care! Brenda
I want to be in the cakewalk and win your cake! DARLING!
Trish, you have embraced the wilton grass tip! This cake is so much fun - I can only imagine how badly all the young and young at heart wanted to win it. I also very fondly remember the cake walks of my youth at the fall festival. Thanks for the eye candy and wonderful memory!

Hi Trisha
What a deliciously scary cake! I'll bet there were many vying for your Halloween creation.
Judith
What a fun cake. I know the monsters at my house would love it.
Mimi
This cake looks fantastic! I might try to make that for a Halloween party we are having at our church.
I hear you re Pinterest too! If you have time I would love it if you could pop by and check out my new Pinterest Party. I would be honoured if you would join in and link up this Pinterest inspired post!
Best wishes for a wonderful week,
Natasha.
Oh, my, cake walks take me back to elementary school. I loved those, and I REALLY love your monster cake! (By the way, my Trisha-inspired tea sandwiches this week were yummy. The pecan butter was just as easy to make as you described it. Yum!)
