This is my Medusa cake. It is chocolate cake with chocolate frosting and milkchocolatesnakes.

Seriously could not be easier to do. Melt some chocolate in plastic bag in microwave. Pipe out weird snake lookin like shapes. Let cool.

Make cake.

Make frosting.

Stick snakes in top of cake.

Viola.

Just dont look at it too long…

  4. I’ll take your orders if you give me a slice of this Medusa Cake!! Love it. You are so creative girl. I would just pick off all those snakes and dip ’em in frosting. You know I LOVE to think outside the box, as do you 😉 Dig the dark & mysterious shot on the bottom!
