Nightmare Cake

The nightmare cake was a single layer yellow cake with vanilla buttercream.

I marbled fondant grey and covered it. I also made headstones with the marbled fondant. I then created the swirl hill that jack from the nightmare before christmas walked on and placed it on top.

I made pumpkins out of fondant and dots for the side of the cake. I used black food coloring and airbrushed the top in places for affect. I then wrote messages on the headstones that said happy birthday, etc.
