Description
A festive and colorful cake perfect for Halloween celebrations!
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 box white cake mix (15 oz.)
- Ingredients listed on box to make cake
- gel food coloring in orange, purple, black, and green
- 1 container white frosting (12 oz.)
- Halloween sprinkles (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 325°F. Generously grease a 12-cup bundt pan and set aside.
- Prepare the cake mix batter as directed on the box.
- Divide the batter: place 1 cup into each of 3 bowls. Tint one orange, one purple, and one black. Tint the remaining batter green.
- Pour orange batter into the bottom of the bundt pan. Carefully pour purple batter on top, then black, then green. Do not stir or swirl.
- Bake according to box directions for a bundt pan, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool in the pan for 5 minutes.
- Invert onto a cooling rack set over a cookie sheet. Cool completely, about 30 minutes.
- Divide frosting into 4 microwave-safe bowls. Tint each with orange, purple, black, and green. Microwave each bowl for a few seconds until smooth enough to drizzle.
- Drizzle frosting colors one at a time over the cooled cake in a striping pattern. Sprinkle with Halloween sprinkles if desired.
- Let frosting set before serving. Store loosely covered at room temperature.
Notes
- For best results, ensure the cake is completely cool before drizzling with frosting.
- This cake can be stored at room temperature for a few days.
