Halloween has always been one of my favorite holidays. Probably because of the sheer amount of sugar involved. As a kid (or adult for that matter), what other holiday can you dress up funny and stuff your face full of candy and sweets and not get yelled at? And then there are all of the fun (and sometimes absolutely disgusting) things that you can serve to your friends at Halloween gatherings that you would never dare to serve on any other holiday. The only time it is permissible and even encouraged to put worms, spiders, bugs, and bats in your food. Happy Halloween!

Halloween Crisp Treats

1/2 cup butter10 cups crispy rice cereal9 cups mini marshmallows2 cups candy corn3/4 cup mini chocolate chipscandy pumpkinsorange food coloring

Grease a large jellyroll pan. In a large saucepan over low heat, melt the butter and marshmallows together. Mix it together until it is smooth. Put the crispy rice cereal, candy corn, and mini chocolate chips into a large bowl and mix well. Mix the orange food coloring into the marshmallow mixture and mix well. Put the marshmallow mixture into the cereal mixture and mix it together quickly. Spread the mixture into the greased jellyroll pan and press it down into the pan with well-greased hands (butter works best). Press the candy pumpkins onto the bars, keeping in mind how big or small you will want to cut the bars. You can have fun with this by serving it in a bed of gummy worms, cut “bites” out of the candy pumpkins and have the gummy worms look like they are eating the pumpkins.

Sparkling Halloween Punch

4 cups apple cider2 cups orange juice2 cups pineapple juice2 cups apricot nectar6 cups chilled gingeraleorange and lemon slicesgummy worms

In a large bowl, mix the apple cider, orange juice, pineapple juice, and apricot nectar. Refrigerate for 2 hours or more. Right before you are ready to serve it, mix in the gingerale and add the orange and lemon slices. Drape gummy worms over the sides of the bowl. For an added Halloween touch, put small plastic spiders in ice cube trays and fill with water. Put in the freezer and add the spider ice cubes to the punch.

Exciting Halloween Food For Kids – 3 Spooky Recipes

  • April 24, 2010 4:21 am

Halloween parties can be utmost fun. While we all focus on the decorations and attire, food adds true life to the party. Good selection of items might not be enough. You can set the right Halloween mood with the apt Halloween dishes.

Yes! Halloween crafts can also be edible. So much so that even kids now-a-days love to make their own food crafts.

While, Internet is a real hub for loads of such recipes, we can give you a kick start to these spooky edibles:

Kids at the tender age love eating dirt – amazed? Yes, it’s true! So, how about creating a Halloween food craft that looks just like dirt?

For this take clear & small plastic cups. Place scoops of chocolate ice cream at the bottom, one in each cup.

Now provide the kids with sealed zip-loc baggie filled with Oreos. Instruct the child to smash these cookies as much as they can. That is turning these cookies in to real small bits.

Now pour the cookie bits on the top of your ice cream.

Further add some gummy worms.

Finally, dig in to hard with a spoon.

Yummy dirt is ready to eat!

For this you need some cocktail wieners and one refrigerated biscuit dough can.

Now, around the bottom of the wiener, wrap the dough. Watch that you leave the tip showing.

From the tip of the wiener that we had left unwrapped, cut an oval piece. This would be the fingernail.

At a temperature of 350 degree Celsius, cook it in the oven. Check that the biscuits should get slightly browned.

Now, let them cool down.

Add some ketchup in place of the fingernail.

Your bloody fingers are ready to be the talk of the party!

Halloween food crafts for kids must look scary but at the same time should be simple to prepare, so that they are easy for the kids to follow.

This food craft is perhaps the simplest of all. Take deviled egg and add a black olive to show the eye black in the middle.

Now coming to the deviled eggs – they are quite easy easy.

Boil the eggs for around 5 minutes and remove them from the heat.

Let them be as it is the hot water for around 10 more minutes.

Now run these eggs under cold water and then refrigerate them. We must do this as cold eggs can be peeled of easily.

Once they cool down, peel the eggs. Cut each of them in half length-wise.

Remove the yolk or the yellow portion and collect it in a bowl.

With the help of a fork, “smoosh” these yolks in order to get a crumbly consistency.

Now, add some mayonnaise. Make sure to put little quantity at a time so that the stuffing remains thick and has a creamy mixture. Excess of mayonnaise would make it quite running.

For some extra flavor add mustard.

Fill the yolk mixture in the egg white with a spoon.

Last, as said earlier, press in the black olives and the edible eyeballs are ready to scare!

3 Halloween Food Hits For Your Fright Night Party

  • April 19, 2010 9:21 am

Whether you are hosting a Halloween party for your kids or for your adult friends, it is always nice to try out a new scary looking food to see if it will be a hit. Of course, the more ghoulish and gruesome the dish looks the more of a hit your party will be. Young or old, almost everyone loves a party at Halloween time. Go ahead, use your devilish imagination and get your party theme going with these 3 Halloween food hits for your fright night party.

Eerie Eyeball Hors d’Oeuvres Halloween Recipe

This is one of my favorite ways to gross out your adult party guests! These are very simple to make and can be frozen and used as ice eyeballs for your martinis or other alcoholic drinks during fall festivals and other hauntingly chilly holidays. All you need to purchase for these creepy hors d’oeuvres some red radishes and green olives stuffed with pimientos. But the way you make these treats is just a little tricky. Carefully use a small knife to peel the red off of the radishes so that all is left is a few red streaks that resemble blood vessels. Then all you do is make a small hole in the top of each radish that will be big enough to stuff a green olive in. Stuff in your olive so that the red pimiento is showing and your radish looks like a creepy eyeball.

Baked Worms in Apples Halloween Snack

The name might make you a little squeamish, but this Halloween food isn’t quite as gross-looking as the eyeball hors d’oeuvres above. But they’re pretty good at scaring any “little” monsters you may have around the house! No matter what, autumn apples always make great Halloween food treats.

Ingredients:1 dozen apples 1 dozen gummy worms 1 small jar of red jam 4 T butter
