Halloween season calls for ghost treats, and these ghost marshmallows are so cute alone or topping a cake!
No Halloween Party is complete without a delectable, ghostly marshmallow cake. This 5-minute cake hack is everything you need to craft your favorite store-bought cake into the dreamiest Halloween candles.
Head to the local bakery for a sheet cake of any size to place these sweet and fun ghost marshmallow toppers on.
Supplies:
- Grab your favorite marshmallow brand (I like these big marshmallows for the ghosts)
- You’ll also need these cute mini taper candles
- These edible paint pens
Turn on your most nostalgic fall movie and get ready for an easy, fun way to welcome spooky season.
Begin with any sheet cake; I prefer a classic round.
Start by scraping the sides to remove excess frosting and any decorations for a “naked cake” look.
Marshmallow Ghosts
Here begins the fun part: the jumbo marshmallow ghosts!
Start by grabbing one of your large marshmallows and adding two oval circles to each marshmallow. These will be your ghost eyes.
What Ghost Cake Toppers are complete without a candle to wish upon? This makes the cake so fun for an October birthday cake with a little Halloween twist.
Pro tip: If you find it tricky to stick the candle into the marshmallow, it can be helpful to insert a skewer into the marshmallow first as a starting hole.
After completing your starter hole, add your mini candle and light the ghost marshmallows up.
Repeat these steps until your ideal topper number is complete.
Whether it is a Halloween Birthday party, a Ghostly girls’ night, or a date night in, these Easy Ghost Cake Toppers are sure to add just the right spooky touch!
