Witches’ Curse Cakes Spell and Recipe
Spellcasting

To bring ill health to an enemy, bake a lock of their hair or a few of their fingernail clippings in a curse cake and bury it under a dead tree during a waning moon. As the cake decays, so will the enemy’s health decline.

WITCHES’ CURSE CAKE

½ cup flour

¼ teaspoon powdered mandrake root

¼ teaspoon baking powder

½ teaspoon salt

1 egg

¼ cup of sour milk

Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Grease the inside of a small tin tray or one cup of a muffin tin. Combine the flour, mandrake root, baking powder, salt, egg and milk. Beat well until the batter is smooth. Add your enemy’s lock of hair and/or fingernail clippings and stir well. Spoon the batter into the tin tray, filling about halfway to the top. Bake 20—25 minutes or until the curse cake is brown.
