We all know that Halloween is all about the goodies. Here are a few treats that aren't too tricky to pull off. Wow them with Martha's fabulous creepcakes. These witch cupcakes will cast a spell on your younger guests. Black cat's paw cookies are the cat's meow....sorry I had to do that. Have Halloween in 3-D with cookies that interlock to make freestanding treats, courtesy of Fancy Flours.
Set out cookies, colored frosting and candies and let kids create their own Creepy Crawlers. Good and bad for you, these monster mouths will get eaten in no time! These festive S'mores are less hassle than the campfire variety and just as delicious. Made from a graham cracker, this Frankenstein mask is easy to duplicate.
Need a few elegant treats for a adult soiree or a special hostess gift? Try these eye-pleasers...impress your guests with Williams-Sonoma's assortment of miniature skulls that arrive in a coffin-shaped box, or a delightfully tasty place setting with their personalized bat cookies. How yummy! Big chunks of ooey gooey handmade chocolate chip fudge with marshmallows get the "stick treatment" before being dipped in Belgian chocolate and decorated by hand. Who'd ever guess that this otherworldly creation is actually moist yellow cake layered with mocha mousse, and wrapped in black-and purple-tinted white chocolate? Both the dipped marshmallows and cake are from Dean & Deluca. Stay tuned for Treats Not Tricks Pt.2.
And while we are talking about Halloween ideas, I've been sharing a few sneak peeks into our Mad Scientist's Lab party over at my blog. I made this Frankenbag from a brown paper bag and paper, as an example for my Fall Events class, and created a more assembly-line-friendly creation for our party's favor bags. Not Just a Mommy!
