I made this cake for my son’s Birthday, delicious! The only changes i made i used whole wheat pastry flour. To the icing i end it up mixing coffee with whipping cream and whipped the cream then added with butter and white chocolate, that way i had more cream available. Also adjusted the sugar in a cake and cream.

I just stumbled upon this recipe and would like to make enough for a 12 inch layer cake. Do you anticipate any problems if I double it?

Hi I found your blog thru Pinterest and I love it! I’m pinning this cake and I’m going to try to attempt this cake for Halloween. I also have 2 boys and they’re going to love the spiders!

I baked this cake for my niece’s birthday and it was a hit! Even I was shocked; I mean I used the cake flour that has been sitting in my pantry for probably a year or so and the layers didn’t rise as much. The frosting was quite thick and grainy and it was really difficult to frost the cake. I used warm spatula but that didn’t help. In the end I just used a paper towel and smooth the frost on the cake. There were also bits and pieces of hardened white chocolate on the frosting.
Everyone love the cake nevertheless and thank you for the recipe.

Hi Zoe,
I’m planning to bake this cake for my niece for her 4th birthday next month; she loves spiders, lol. But I would like to do some preparations ahead as I have to attend to 3 kids (2+, 1+ and a 3 month old) and I don’t think it is possible to do it all in a day (not for me anyway, lol).
Can I bake the cake say on Thursday, then do the frosting on Friday and bring it to the party on Saturday? Will it be okay?

Your cake looks incredible delicious. I got a copy of your bread recipe “Healthy bread in 5 mins per day”. It is sold in MPH bookshop Malaysia. I like most of the recipes and it turn out very well. I even bought a second copy give to my sister Due to rice is our staple food and the kids are so get used to soft texture. I have to adjust the water content to make the bread softer.
Here is the type of bread we eat in Asia. In general it is softer and sweeter too. http://home-baking.net/english/bread/menu-butter-roll-arrange.php
