Cakes

I wish I could find the blog that I found this idea from to give proper credit, SHOOT I just remembered maybe it is on my blog somewhere. I will make you a deal the first person to find it will when a camera strap cover for FREE. Okay, I love making these cakes because they come out so pretty. But honestly they are pricey to make. That is until this week when my friend Amber made a smores one. This one is cheap and easy
1 yellow cake mix
1 can chocolate frosting
1 package of graham crackers
1 pack of mini marshmallows
a little bit of chocolate syrup for the top.
ooh so yummy. The next one I want to make is with colored licorce (how do you spell that) and then put jelly beans on the top.
Do you have any ideas of cute cakes that could be made without busting the budget

pumpkin patch cake

Thursday was Hope and her art teachers birthday. So I decided to make them a cake for co-op. Then Rob got involved. So what ended up happening was I iced a sheet cake with homemade chocolate icing and then we took ground up chocolate grahm crackers and sprinkled on top to look like dirt. Then we took two bundt cakes and iced them with homemade orange frosting to look like a pumpkin. I made rice krispy treats for the stem and iced them with green icing. We then layed candy corn pumpkins all over the top.
Everyone enjoyed it.
