Our Tomb Cake

My mother-in-law introduced me to the tomb cake years ago, I think when I was still dating my now husband. One other year I tried it and it kinda flopped...so this year I was excited to have one that turned out somewhat decent! I just baked a cake in a bundt pan and cut it in half to set it on it's side and look like a "tomb" with an opening.

I colored coconut green for the grass and put a small piece of white felt inside the EMPTY tomb to represent Jesus' grave wrappings.

HE IS RISEN!!
