Give your Halloween cake or "Swiss roll " an extra spooky look with spiderwebs made of marshmallows, googly eyes, and blood-red jam.

Put a generous amount of marshmallows in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave them for 10–20 seconds, until they are soft and slightly melted. Let them cool slightly.

Squeeze the soft marshmallow mixture a few times between your hands, then pull it through your fingers to form long, thin strands. Arrange the strands over the cake or Swiss roll until you’ve created a spiderweb pattern.

Transfer your Halloween cake or "Swiss roll " to a serving platter. Arrange some fun candy eyes on top, and finish with a little thin, red jam to give it an extra spooky look.
