It may be prepared with orange and black coloration in the cake and icing, because orange is a traditional color associated with Halloween, such as the color of pumpkins, which are used to create jack-o'-lanterns. Black is another traditional Halloween color, and black coloration may be used on graveyard-themed cakes, among others. Food coloring may be used in the icing to color it. Carrot cakes are sometimes prepared as Halloween cakes, per their orange coloration. They are sometimes prepared as a spice cake, as a chocolate cake, as a pudding cake, and as a cheesecake.
