Ingredients

Instructions

  • Bake the cakes and allow them to cool completely.
  • While the cakes are baking and cooling, prepare the frosting.
  • Trim the domes off the cakes, if any, to ensure they are levelled.
  • Place one cake on a serving dish.
  • Spread icing on top.
  • Place the other cake on top and press gently to secure it into place.
  • Ice the entire cake smoothly in frosting.
  • Start sticking black Twizzlers all around the sides of the cake. I had to cut Twizzlers in half with scissors to match the height of the cake. You may need to do that too.
  • Wrap a bright orange ribbon around the cake to hold Twizzlers in place. Without this ribbon, some of the Twizzlers were falling over.
  • Spread yellow and orange candies on top of the cake. I also cut up some leftover yellow and black Twizzlers into little pieces and tossed those on top.
  • Toss some more yellow Twizzler bits around the base. Enjoy!

Notes

  • Read all my tips above.
  • Leftovers can be stored in a sealed container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Please note that candies may become sticky from the moisture in the refrigerator.
