Halloween Monster cake from my Cake class with @imtopsyturvy and @orsongygi

This post may contain affiliate links. Read my discolsure police here.

Happy Halloween everyone!  Today I want to share my Monster cake.

Last week I was able to attend my first every cake decorating class.  I had a blast!  I decorated most of my cake at the class and came home to finish it.  The class was held at Gygi and was taught by Ashlee from I’m Topsy Turvy – she made the fabulous Snap cake.

At the class I learned many decorating techniques that I found very useful.  My camera died right at the beginning of class so I wasn’t able to grab pictures from the class.

We learned how to make rosette’s, ruffles, and many other techniques.  I colored my frosting green and used one of the techniques I learned to decorate the cake this way

To make my Monster’s hair I added some chocolate frosting to the top

Thank I added a layer of chocolate chips

I then carefully scraped off the center of an oreo and added a dab of frosting and put it on the cake and then I added some m&m’s for the monsters eyes.

I think it turned out so cute!  At first I was going to go for a Frankenstein look but I ran out of time before the party and didn’t have the items on hand to make ears or stitches.  I think it turned out perfect just as a monster!

I took it to a family Halloween party and everyone loved it!

What I love most about Ashlee’s cake decorating classes is that they are held during the day while your kids are at school – so no need to find a babysitter! Ashlee will be teaching the first and second monday of each month.

Here are some of the beautiful cakes Ashlee has made – just love them!
