~ BATTER ~
18 1/4 oz box white cake mix
4-serving package green gelatine

~ BLACK FROSTING ~
Blue food colouring
Chocolate frosting ~

DECORATIONS ~
4 black liquorice whips
2 big green gumballs
6 little gumballs


Prepare cake using two 9-inch round cake pans. Cool.
Prepare the gelatine according to package directions.

It works best if it is just a little on the soft side.

On a foil-covered -sheet, place one cake layer for the body.
Cut a smaller circle out of the centre of the layer.

Place this smaller round of cake as the spider's head.

Fill the hole left in the body layer with gelatine.

Place the other cake layer on top of the body and trim cake slightly to shape , if desired.

To prepare frosting, in a mixing bowl, add blue food colouring to the chocolate frosting until black in colour.

Frost the entire cake black. Cut the black liquorice whips in half and insert for the eight legs.

Position the gumballs as eyes.

When cake is cut, it spurts green goop.
