Gruesome Monstrous Animal Desserts

The Devil Horse Cake is Too Terrifying to Eat

— October 31, 2013 — Lifestyle
This gruesome Devil Horse Cake is extremely well designed and terrifying. Made by Miss Cakehead, the same genius behind the amazing unicorn cake, this giant dessert has red velvet insides and is dripping in rum. Most would be too terrified to eat it but if you've got a strong stomach you'd better eat it before it eats you.

This gory-looking horse cake shows a demon horse with its bones protruding from its torn, bleeding flesh. The horse looks posed still as if its running away from the graveyard of bones and dead creatures it just devoured.

The Devil Horse Cake is so well designed and so creative it's the perfect thing to enjoy at a Halloween party. Grab your scrubs and your vampire teeth because this demon animal cake is up for a fight.
