Halloween Birthday Cake

Halloween Birthday cake
I made this cake for Teresa's friends birthday party. It was a super intense cake with a lot of stuff on it. But really fun! And I broke it up so I wasn't doing it all in one day. (plus a super fun costume party - Teresa was mother nature and I was a scarecrow - check the family blog after halloween for a pic)


It's a 3 tiered cake, with a 2 layer 10" Devil's food round, with chocolate frosting in the middle and buttercream on the outside. The middle layer is a 2 layer 8" round, and the Jack on top was made using a small pyrex bowl.
This is the back

And the Jack-o-lantern with a spider on top. This is covered in fondant.
