Spiderweb Halloween "Cheesecake"

A vegan spiderweb cheesecake may not be the first thing that comes to mind when you think of spooky Halloween cakes, but this decadent recipe just might change that.

Monster Halloween Cake

One of the best parts about creating spooky Halloween cakes is that it gives you the chance to add a lot of creative colors that you normally wouldn't use for baked goods. Bold shades such as orange, green, and purple take center stage in this delicious dessert — alongside those truly eye-popping candies. Shared by Instagram user @alli_cupcakediaries, this sweet treat proves that even things we're supposed to be afraid of — like monsters — can actually be gorgeous if they're part of a cake. The fact that said cake is chocolate makes it the best part of all.

How festive!
