Eyeball cauldron cake

Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp sunflower oil
  • 2 x 225g pack sponge mix
  • 4 eggs
  • black food colouring
  • icing sugar, for dusting
  • 2 x 454g packs ready to roll white icing
  • 2 tbsp seedless raspberry jam
  • 4 Flumps (fluffy mallow twists)
  • red and green food colouring
  • black and blue writing icing
  • 1/3 of a 400g tub vanilla flavour frosting
  • 3 pick n’ mix jelly snakes
  • 6 pick n’ mix black jelly beans
  • 3 pick n’ mix jelly teeth

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 190°C/375°F/ Gas 5. Lightly oil a 20.5cm Pyrex bowl. Make up the cake mix with the eggs and 6 tbsp water. Pour into the oiled bowl and bake for 40 minutes, or until a skewer inserted into the centre of the cake comes out clean. Turn the cake out of the bowl and allow to cool.
  2. Knead the black food colouring into one and a half packs of the white icing.* Roll out two thirds of this on a surface dusted with icing sugar into a circle large enough to cover the cake.
  3. Turn the cake upside down so the flat side faces down. Brush the cake with warmed raspberry jam and lift the icing over it, smoothing down the edges with your hands. Turn the cake the other way up and lift onto a serving plate.
  4. Roll the remaining black icing into a long, thin strip and lay the flumps in a line on top. Brush the edge of the icing with water and lift up the edges to enclose the flumps and form a long tube. Place this on top of the cake to form the rim of the cauldron.
  5. Roll the white icing into 8 balls. Paint on veins with the red food colouring and pipe on the eye using the writing icing.
  6. Mix the frosting in a bowl with some green food colouring and a few drops of black. Spoon into the centre of the cauldron and fluff up with the back of a spoon. Put the eyeballs in the green ‘soup’ with snakes, beans and teeth.
