Friday the 13th Cake

Friday the 13th birthday cake for a girl turning 10. Severed fingers are fondant, with non-edible fake nails, and in the shape of a "10" instead of a candle. The blood is corn syrup and red food gel (with a touch of black). All fondant accents, including spiders, but the webbing was made using the Gummy Spider Web recipe on this site and the white dragees are store bought (those are intended to be spider eggs!) Cake is scratch chocolate with chocolate IMBC and fresh strawberries. A thin layer of chocolate ganache is under the fondant.
