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 love the idea of baking Oreos into brownies…that sounds too good to be true!

We just moved into a new neighborhood that has a Halloween costume parade and potluck. I would definitely use the goodies in the giveaway to create some spooky snacks to share with the neighborhood kiddos!

What a cute cake! Of course you have to have brains at a Halloween Party!
Trish says
I’m thinking some Rice Krispies treats with the marshmallows, and maybe with some crushed up Oreos mixed in. Yes, that’ll do 🙂

I love the brain cake idea! It is awesome. We have a halloween pumpkin carving party every year and I might have to use this idea for our party this year! I’d love to see tiny jell-o brains on cupcakes, too 🙂 I’m going to have to look for a small brain mold. (ok, after I typed that, it made me laugh)

I’d make lots of goodies for my Halloween party! Love the jello brain.
