So, I can't say that this is an original idea, but it sure was fun to make! Once I continue to get a little better, it would be much easier to cover the 'eyes' with fondant, or melted chocolate would probably even work the best and would give it a little more of a finished look. Overall, I thought that it was very cute for my first 'monster' cake. It was also my first attempt at a homemade marble cake. Thanks to my AWESOME friend Amy for a book with 100 different cake recipies. I did get the feedback that the cake was super good. It was dense, but moist, as it is more of a sponge cake texture. The frosting was a little sweet for the adults (after I got all the 'hair' on there, the frosting was probably about an inch thick), but of course the children had no complaints! I am hoping to do a few more of these around Halloween, so if you plan on having a Halloween party and want a cake, please email me!!
