I often have cake on my mind. But sometimes I have my mind on cake. Or at least a JELL-O mind on top of my cake!
With a simple brain mold, we added a JELL-O brain to the top of a cake. My daughter loved this project. It turns out a Jell-O brain is quite the hit! It was easy to make and is just one of the Halloween ideas I found over at Kraft Foods. We went with simple strawberry Jell-O and the mold.
And we put our Jell-O Brain on top of a cake that I frosted with white frosting and then dripped a little extra red frosting over. SO simple. Use any cake recipe that you like! This is a great way to turn a rather plain dessert into a perfect party table centerpiece.
The cute Halloween Subway art in the photo is from Eighteen 25.
This would be so much fun at a Halloween party.

Yummm! I would love to make chocolate and pumpkin spiced rice crispy treats with those marshmallows!

If you add some heavy cream to the jello (reducing the amount of hot water or adding plain non flavored jello so it still sets up) you’d get a more fleshy look! also in a trick book I read you could add a baggy of fake blood or slime so it oozes when you cut in bwahahaha.
