I recently discovered a great baking blog by a fellow Ottawaian (or however you say it), Paula at Vanilla Bean Baker. And through Paula’s blog, I found another great baking blog, I Am Baker. (Don’t ya love how that works?) Amanda has created some of the coolest Hallowe’en cakes – she is one seriously talented baker! Check out her cool & creepy creations, starting with this red velvet cake with marshmallow buttercream ghosts:
How fun are those ghosts!? And here’s more fun – check out this awesome pumpkin cake:
Cool enough, you might be thinking, but what makes it awesome? THIS makes it awesome:
Say it with me now – AWESOME! I have no idea how Amanda made the candle, but that is seriously cool! And she created this cake of awesomeness too:
It has a bat inside!
Ghosts & pumpkins & bats not your thing? Well, then how about spiders? Lots of creepy crawly spider petits fours:
And here are come cute & colourful cookies created by Meaghan at The Decorated Cookie. They just happen to be in some of my favourite colours :-)
And one last treat from Paula at Vanilla Bean Baker – she baked and decorated these bat & moon cookies:
And then turned them into a fun & edible mobile:
If you’d like to try out Amanda’s & Meaghan’s & Paula’s Hallowe’en cake & cookie creations, here are the recipes:
Happy baking!
