A lot of people like to celebrate Halloween with their furry friends. Here's a good cake recipe we got for throwing a birthday party from Paws and Tails Bakery. By altering the icing you can use this recipe for throwing a k9 Halloween Barkfest:
Banana Birthday Pupcake
2 bananas
1 3/4 cups water
1/4 tsp pure vanilla extract
3 cups whole wheat flour
1/2 Tbsp baking powder
1 Tbsp cinnamon
1 egg
2 Tbsp honey or molasses

Preheat oven to 350˚ F. In a bowl, combine bananas, water, vanilla, egg, and honey or molasses and mix well. Add flour, baking powder, and cinnamon and mix well. Pour mixture into an 8-inch greased cake pan. Bake for 1 hour to 1 hour and 15 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in center of cake comes out dry.

Frosting
In a mixer combine the following:
12 oz cream cheese (room temperature)
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
1 tsp honey
For carob frosting, add 3 tsp of carob powder to the frosting recipe.

Presentation
As most human guests likely won’t savour a slice, presentation is paramount. A cute idea is to use Pup-Peroni sticks instead of candles. And edible “candles” ensure no Poodle-do’s go up in flame—very important! Or try decorating the cake with crushed, dried banana chips and pipe a design on top of cake using contrasting carob frosting, or spell out the birthday dog’s name with little dog bone-shaped cookies. Aww
