Pumpkin Pie Cake with Cinnamon Buttercream
As life goes by, I find that it's too short to be stuck with a tasteless cake from the grocery store. Instead, I'll bake a tasty treat to enjoy and share with family and friends. When you've had a piece of my cake, you'll remember it and ask for it again!

Halloween sugar cookie overload!
Faced with a tray of these sugar cookies, it may be hard to decide which one to pick. I won't tell if you take more than one!

Modified royal icing candy corn

Coffins with chocolate buttercream
Not-so-scary cats with buttercream and sprinkles
Monsters with modified royal icing
Moons with marshmallow fondant
Spider webs with modified royal icing
Tombstones with chocolate buttercream tinted dark gray and black
Chocolate indulgence!
The birthday girl's request was for a white cake with chocolate frosting. This is a white chocolate cake, which adds a subtle yumminess to the taste of a white cake, frosted with a milk chocolate buttercream, using the petal effect. Decorated with vanilla buttercream drop flowers.

Caramel Apple Cupcakes
Think back through your childhood memories of fall and Halloween, and I'm sure that somewhere in there, you remember biting into a sticky, sweet caramel apple. The bliss of eating one is replicated here with a cupcake.
The cupcake has a mixture of fresh apples, frosted with a brown sugar icing, topped with a caramel glaze and a variety of sprinkles. Pecans, candy corn, and Halloween sprinkles top these cupcakes. Don't let the stick fool you, you'll need a fork to eat these gooey yet yummy treats!

Pumpkin Pie Cake
Don't you just love fall and all the tastes it brings? One of the most popular flavors this time of year is pumpkin. And with Thanksgiving soon approaching, pumpkin pie is an American tradition.
This year, let's shake it up a bit and instead of the usual pumpkin pie with a dollop of Cool Whip, why not serve a Pumpkin Pie Cake topped with either a cinnamon buttercream or cream cheese frosting?
Here is the Pumpkin Pie Cake in three different styles:

I really enjoy making sugar cookies, and having a holiday provides a perfect excuse!
These are sugar cookie cutouts topped with a variety of icing options.
The ghosts are covered with marshmallow fondant. The skulls are covered with modified royal icing. The pumpkins are covered with buttercream.
