Trick or Treat Cake: Halloween Inspiration

Halloween may be known as the candy holiday but who says you can’t have your cake and eat it (candy) too? This Trick or Treat cake combines the best of both. A delicious spooky, orange-colored Vanilla Cake with Dark Chocolate Frosting and topped with some of your favorite Halloween candy. It’s a great treat to share with your favorite ghouls and goblins.

This trick or treat cake employs the classic orange and black Halloween color scheme. And it adds the joy of cake along with the fun of candy. It's everything you've ever wished for in a fun Halloween dessert. The cake is covered in our indulgent black dark chocolate frosting. Cut into it to reveal a stunning orange-colored vanilla cake. (For a fun variation on this, you can use our Vanilla Cupcake Kit to make dozens of orange cupcakes topped with black frosting and pieces of your favorite candies.) Our cake kits save you time and effort, allowing you to concentrate on getting into the Halloween spirit.

Trick or Treat Cake Instructions

Follow steps 1 through 4 on your Vanilla Cake recipe card. Add in the orange food coloring and continue with the remainder of the recipe. While the cake is cooling, prepare the Dark Chocolate Frosting recipe as written. Frost the top of one layer of cake before placing the second layer on top. Frost the top and sides of the cake as desired. To finish, decorate the top of your cake with the Halloween candy. (Make sure to cut up any larger pieces into bite-sized pieces first.) Trick-or-Treat!
