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.

I am thinking of making a skull molded cake and the brain mold would be awesome for that. The marshmellows are also cool to make Frankenstein cupcakes. There so much that can be done with all this stuff. This will be my first year throwing a Halloween party since its a first for my only baby niece Davanee:)

Wow! Where do I start? I love to make dipped marshmallows on a stick and Oreos in a mold or decorated on a stick. The possibilites are endless! Thanks for the great giveaway!

Carly says
This would be awesome… oreos to make oreo truffles, cream cheese to whip up some flavored cream cheese frosting… the possibilities would be endless! =]

I actually love the brain idea you shared above. I think I would give that a try!
Amy Z. says
I’d so love to use those jello molds to make some fun jello for a halloween party!
Brittany says
These goodies would be perfect for my sister’s Halloween party!, I would deff make a brain cake and probably some spooky oreo cupcakes, and some candy corn sugar cookies, some witch fingers, carmel apples, and more! I would make some cheesy potatoes as a side for dinner on Halloween for when the kids com back from trick or treating they can put something warm in their belly!

I love making Franken-krispies! (ricekrispies treats tinted with electric green coloring, and adding a face with candy and signature flat top hair with black icing)

I would so live to win this! It looks like I could have a lot of fun with it

I love the brain!!! I think that would be pretty cool to serve at a teen Halloween party. I like the sensory rich party games so some overcooked pasta and peeled grapes in a bowl of egg whites. Maybe serve those Salted Caramel Cake pops and use the Oreos to make a crust for a caramel cheesecake. 🙂
