Halloween Cake Topper Instructions
Start by uploading the cake topper SVG to Cricut Design Space. Need help uploading your file? Check out this post!
Each gravestone and the ghost is about 1.5″ wide, so resize if needed. I have seven on my cake, but you can always cut more or fewer. You could also make one big one, or use them individually on cupcakes. I’m using bright colors because, well, it’s me, but if you want a more traditional look, use black paper instead of the colors.
Now you’re ready to cut your file! Hit Make It in the upper right.
Layer the colored gravestones behind the gray gravestones with the cutout words, so the color shows through. Place a toothpick or wire between the two layers, and glue together. I like using my Xyron Mini Sticker Maker for projects like this!
That’s it! So quick—just stick into your cake or cupcakes. These Halloween cake toppers is easy to make and perfect for a spooky party! If you’re baking, make sure to make my 15-Minute Skeleton Oven Mitts with a Cricut!
