Frankenstein and his bride can also make an excellent cake topper. Opt for a three tired wedding cake, hand painted in order to resemble the Frankenstein castle. If you want a spookier Halloween wedding cake, a black cake made of dark chocolate is the ideal alternative. The bride and groom will be represented by two small and nice skulls. Decorate the cake with beautiful red roses and white, delicate spiders make of vanilla frosting. Movie characters are often used in order to decorate a Halloween wedding cake.

In case you are having an elegant wedding and want a delicate and classy yet eye-catching Halloween cake, opt for less elaborate and scary ornaments and shapes. Order a traditional white wedding cake, with two or three tires, depending on the number of guests and own preferences. Use beautiful and seasonal decorations and settings to create a Halloween atmosphere around the cake. For instance, use small orange pumpkins to reflect the holiday. Also, cover the white cake with orange fondant in order to match the wedding’ color scheme. Press some fall leaves on the table in order to embellish the wedding cake table. Candies are also a very important part of the Halloween. Use candy corn to decorate each tier of the cake.
