What’s better than birthday cake? Zombie birthday cake, obviously. I have few domestic talents, but this is a cake that even the most clueless chef can tackle with ease. Mistakes? No such thing. This zombie rises up out of a grave of chocolate cake, frosting, and crumbled cookies.
What you need:
- foil
- cardboard box
- Oreo cookies
- gummy worms
- black gel icing
- chocolate frosting
- a round chocolate cake (buy premade, or make from a box – recipes are for crazy people)
- a doll cake topper/pick, which can be found at a craft store or in the cake decorating section of some supermarkets
- gel food coloring (do not try to shortcut with regular liquid food colors)
- plastic eyeballs, spiders, or other creepy crawlies (optional)
