Old Fashioned Witch Cocktail
If you loved making the sugar skulls for Halloween then may I suggest a great way to serve them (apart from with coffee or tea)? This Halloween cocktail is a spin on an old fashioned but lighter. Whisky is traditional but you can also use vodka if you want something lighter.

Pennywise Chocolate Pops
If your idea of a nightmare is Pennywise the clown (and seriously who doesn't have nightmares of clowns?) then these cute little Halloween chocolate pops are your answer! These are made using a skull chocolate mould decorated with coloured fondant. They're easy and surprisingly effective!

Gummy Worms In Dirt
Gross out your friends with this fun, edible Halloween treat! These gummy worms are just about the most fun Halloween project with your kids or grown up friends you can make! They're made using easy to find items like packet jelly, juice and Oreos (although plastic bendy straws might be hard to source nowadays). They look so effectively gross that I found it hard to eat them!

Severed Finger Dogs
These are hands down (no pun intended) one of my favourite ever Halloween snacks. I like to bring them out halfway through the night to soak up any alcohol and to balance the sugar rush. They can be "decorated" ahead of time and then heated in the oven before they get sauced up!

Halloween Eye Balls in Blood
I promise you cannot get an easier Halloween recipe than these Halloween Eye Balls in blood sauce. It's basically bocconcini cheese with olives in a delicious tomato sauce! They're great for feeding any vegetarians or anyone that is gluten and dairy free!

Blood Clot Severed Finger Pie
One of my favourite Halloween pie ingredients is cherries because they give pies a deep, dark, bloody look but taste heavenly. I like to use sour cherries in this "blood clot" pie if I can find them but regular tinned or frozen cherries will do.

Cauldron Cake Pops
I absolutely love these Halloween Cake Pops that are shaped like cauldrons. If I have leftover cake from trimming the tops off cake I like to freeze it to make cake pops. There's no better second life for cake trimming than being shaped into a ball (or in this case cauldron) and then being dipped in chocolate. The feet were inspired by the Wizard of Oz and the bones were purchased from a candy shop.
