Hey! I'm Taryn. Welcome to our blog. I cant wait to sprinkle a little fun into your kitchen with you!
This Trick or Treat Cake is like a Halloween party on a plate. It’s super easy—just start with a cake mix, swirl on colorful frosting, and load it up with sprinkles and candy. It’s fun to make, even more fun to decorate, and guaranteed to be the star of any spooky get-together.
Do I need to chill the frosting before piping?
Not usually! As long as your butter is soft and your kitchen isn’t too warm, the frosting should be pipeable right after mixing.
Can I use a different cake mix flavor?
Yes! White, yellow, or vanilla all work. Just avoid chocolate if you want the frosting colors and sprinkles to pop.
What kind of food coloring works best?
Gel food coloring gives the brightest color without making the frosting runny. Liquid drops won’t be as vibrant.

Frosting & Decorations:
Can I make this Trick or Treat Cake ahead of time?
Yes—bake and frost it the day before. Store covered at room temperature or refrigerate if your kitchen is warm.
How do I store leftovers?
Keep the cake covered tightly. It’ll stay fresh for 3–4 days at room temp or up to 5 days in the fridge.
Can I freeze this cake?
You can freeze the unfrosted cake for up to 2 months. Frost after thawing for the best texture and color.
What piping tips did you use?
A shell tip for the black border and a 1M tip for the purple swirls. No fancy skills needed—just swirl and go!
Can I make this into cupcakes?
Definitely! Bake for 15–18 minutes at 350°F and decorate each with a swirl of frosting and candy on top.
