Step 10Finishing up the Cake Display
Ok, so far, I have placed the cauldron and tree onto the cake board/stand. Next, it was time to add witchie-poo.
Remember, I have her on a separate base, so it's just a matter of picking her up off of that base, and threading her lighting wires through the pipe and flange that is already secured on the cake board. You'll definitely need an extra pair of hands for this step. I held the witch up while my daughter guided the wires through and pulled them underneath the board. Next, it was just a matter of re-connecting the previously cut wires back to the battery pack. Wrap them with electrical tape individually.
Lastly, I placed the pumpkins over their lights and sprinkled around some Multi-bran flake cereal for the leaves. Originally, I really wanted to air brush them with fall colors, but again, I got in a hurry and just wanted to call it done.
The greatest part was the official lighting of the cake. I tell ya, I felt like Clark Griswald on National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation...you know, the moment when he plugged in the Xmas lights for the house? Only to my amazement, it totally worked the first time.
