It’s Monday, so you’re probably still recovering from last night’s Walking Dead Season 6 premiere. If you DVR’d it, I won’t give anything away, other than there’s a whole buttload of zombies. Like, an entire buttload.
To help celebrate the event, Yolanda Gampp of How To Cake It made a Walking Dead Brain Cake. Made with a red velvet base, Yolanda created the brain tissue part with rolled fondant. Raspberry jam was then used to make it extra gory/delicious. CAAAAKKEE!!

It’s almost Halloween, aka, Scaring the Shit Out of Kids Season. And, there could be no better way to do this, than to frighten children via baked goods.
Zombie Mouth Cupcakes, by Instructables member SemadarG, are made to look as though they’ll bite you back. Please do not let that happen of course, as you will eventually turn… probably into a scary cupcake. Instructions here.

Halloween’s coming, and you’re going to need the spookiest cookies possible. The Skull and Crossbones Rolling Pin will help spookify that boring dough of yours.
Brought to us by Etsy store, Mood For Wood, the beechwood rolling pin is embossed with enough skulls and bones to get the kids in the spirit.
Give a few skull and crossbones cookies to trick-or-treaters, and you’ll be the coolest house on the block… except for that lady down the street that gives out full-sized Snickers.
Check out the pin here.
If you’re sick of planet-themed baked goods, it’s finally time for a satellite dessert.
The Moon Cake, adapted from a David Lebovitz recipe, is a simple chocolate cake. The moon’s surface is made with Empress Pearl Dust, to give it the cratered surface, and optional astronaut footprint.
Invite some conspiracy theorists and try to convince them that you really baked it.

If your current toaster pastries aren’t painfully adorable enough, you can make your own Hello Kitty Pop-Tarts.
Rachel of Kawaii Sweet World is here to show us the way, with this handy tutorial. If you’d like to make your own, it only takes a few pie crusts, jelly beans and icing. Then it’s time to bite Kitty’s adorable face off. Enjoy.
