You won't believe how easy it is to make this delicious mailable cake art!

Part 1 - Carve and paint a sponge to look just like cake, then attach a post card

Part 2 - Frost your cake mail with painter's caulk and add Halloween bling

Come back tomorrow for another Halloween treat!  Moohoooaahahah!


Materials:
Aleene's Super Thick Tacky Glue
Large sponge
Painter's caulk
Card stock
Acrylic paint
Paint brush
Craft knife
Plastic disposable pastry bags  - sandwich bags are not strong enough for this
Embellishments
1. Cut sponge into wedges/cake slice shapes.
2. Cut a slot down the center of one side, horizontally and cut away the sponge in the slot.
3. Paint the sponge and allow to dry.
4. Cut card stock to the size of one side of the cake and glue on.
5. Squeeze caulk into a disposable pastry bag, tie the end off with a baggie tie and snip off the tip.
6. Squeeze the caulk  into the slot on the side and all over the top and back of the cake.
7. Add embellishments to the icing.
8. Allow to dry until the caulk is hard.  That may take a few days.
