Maleficent Cake Jar Recipe

Maleficent Cake Jar

“The princess shall indeed grow in grace and beauty, beloved by all who know her. But, before the sun sets on her sixteenth birthday…she should enjoy cake!”

Even though Maleficent didn’t say the last part of this quote in her curse, we think she would be in better spirits if cake was offered at Princess Aurora’s birthday celebration. Today, we are showing you how to create this incredible dessert based on everyone’s favorite Disney villain!

Ingredients

1.) Cake

  • Vanilla Cake Mix
  • Chocolate Cake Mix
  • 2 1/2 cups water
  • 1 cup vegetable oil
  • 6 eggs
  • Purple food coloring

2.) Icing

  • 1 pound unsalted butter
  • 1 pound powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp milk
  • 1/4 tsp peppermint extract
  • Electric green food coloring

3.) Toppings

  • Black fondant
  • Purple sprinkles

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  2. Combine vanilla cake mix, 1 1/4 cup water, 1/2 cup vegetable oil, and 3 eggs into a large bowl. Add purple food coloring and stir until combined.
  3. Combine chocolate cake mix, 1 1/4 cup water, 1/2 cup vegetable oil, and 3 eggs into a large bowl.
  4. Scoop 1/4 cup of purple cake batter into mason jar. Add 1/4 cup of chocolate cake batter. Continue to alternate layers of purple and chocolate cake batter until mason jar is half full.
  5. Fill a baking pan with a thin layer of water. Place cake jar on pan. Bake cake jar at 350 degrees for 25-35 minutes.
  6. While cake jar is baking, roll fondant into 1″ balls. Shape into horns.
  7. To prepare mint icing, combine unsalted butter, powdered sugar, milk, and peppermint extract into a bowl. Add electric green food coloring.
  8. Once cake jars have cooled, pipe icing on top of the cake. Add purple sprinkles, and place two horns to finish the look.

The mason jar dessert tastes just as good as it looks! It’s a great dessert to bring to a Disney party.

Luckily, Disney has you covered with a wickedly evil new outfit available online: a Maleficent Dress! We’ve previously spotted Hocus Pocus dresses and Darth Vader dresses around the parks, so it’s about time another one of our favorite Disney villains gets her own dress.

The Maleficent Dress features the Sleeping Beauty antagonist’s signature purple shade. Maleficent herself appears on the front of the skirt, engulfed in green flames and briars.

Her super fierce dragon form appears on the back of the skirt as well as an embroidered raven because it’s all about the details!

Top 5 Picks for Celebrating #Halfway2Halloween at Home

by , Editorial Content Director, Disney Parks

Fun Ways to Celebrate Halfway to Halloween

As part of our #Halfway2Halloween takeover at Disney Parks, we’re digging up five favorite ways to have some spook-tacular fun at home! Whether it’s a delightfully ghoulish DIY project, a creepily creative candy apple or a not-so-scary digital wallpaper for your device, check out our list of Disney surprises:

1 – Make One of These Not-So-Scary DIY projects

Our first way to celebrate #Halfway2Halloween is with a bewitchingly wondrous series of DIY projects.

        2 – Harken Back to Halloween Past

        Celebrate #Halfway2Halloween with a fascinating look at the history of Halloween at Disney Parks.

        3 – Learn Something New about The Haunted Mansion

        One of our favorite attractions is The Haunted Mansion, so add to the #Halfway2Halloween fun with these facts:

        • The idea for a haunted house at Disneyland was included in an early concept design sketch by Harper Goff dating back to 1952, when Disneyland was still being conceptualized.
        • Within a week of the Haunted Mansion’s opening, Disneyland celebrated what was then its highest single-day attendance.
        • 20 tombstone tributes exist both inside and around the exterior of the attraction. The epitaphs on the tombstones were written to honor several Disney Legends and Walt Disney Imagineers who created and maintain the attraction.
        • The final exterior concept for the house is heavily influenced by the Victorian-era Shipley-Lydecker House in Baltimore, Maryland.
        • Thurl Ravenscroft is the voice of “Uncle Theodore” who leads the “Phantom Five” quintet of singing headstones. His voice can also be heard at Walt Disney’s Enchanted Tiki Room as the voice of both Fritz and Tangaroa.
        • The pipe organ seen in the ballroom sequence was featured as Captain Nemo’s pipe organ in the Disney film classic, “20,000 Leagues Under the Sea.” For more details, check out George’s story here.
        • Leota Toombs, a former Walt Disney Imagineer and Disney Legend, served as the famous face of Madame Leota.
        • The Hatbox Ghost was featured in Haunted Mansion when the attraction first opened. Then, he mysteriously vanished, only to reappear in 2015 in time for the 60th anniversary of Disneyland.

        Plus, we’d like to introduce you to 13 of the attraction’s residents at Disneyland Resort.

        4 – Create a Special Candy Apple

        Also, you can choose from a variety of Halloween candy apple tutorials to celebrate #Halfway2Halloween. Each of these apples are coated with delicious candies, colored sugar and more.

        5 – Add some Spooky fun to Your Devices
