HALLOWEEN PUMPKIN-SHAPED CAKE 
This easy cake has been a favorite for our family Halloween celebrations.

2 pkgs. cake mix (your choice)
2 cans prepared white frosting
orange and black food coloring
1 Hostess Ho-Ho (or similar cake-roll snack item)

Prepare two cakes in Bundt pans according to package directions, cool completely.

Color most of the frosting a deep orange, reserving about 1/2 cup, which should be colored black (you may also use dark chocolate fudge frosting).

DECORATING:

Place one Bundt cake upside down (rounded side on the bottom) on cake plate; frost top only. Place second Bundt cake flat-side down on top of first cake. Frost entire cake with orange frosting, making up and down motions with spatula to simulate pumpkin.

Insert Ho-Ho in the middle of the top of the Bundt cake to make the stem.

Use black frosting to make eyes, nose, mouth, etc. Black rope licorice may also be used.
