We’ve even got a Halloween-themed baking kit idea that doubles up as a fun bonding activity to do with the kids. Whether your kids are getting all dressed up this year in ghoulish costumes for a party or whether you are just having Halloween movie night in, here are some fun snacks and treats to go with the Halloween theme.

1. Veggie Skeleton

Make veggies cool again with this fun vegetable platter of crudités! Use red peppers, yellow peppers, carrots, cucumber, and celery for the skeleton bones and a little bowl of dip for the skull!


2. Watermelon Monster

Halloween recipes don’t always have to be sugar loaded! We told you about carving up cheaper pumpkin alternatives to make Jack’O Lanterns. Using a watermelon instead of a pumpkin means you can present the Jack’O Lantern as an edible centrepiece too! Just carefully carve your watermelon and save the fruit to spill out of the monster’s mouth together with pineapple and any other fruit you have at hand.


3. Bake with Bisou Halloween Baking Kits

Get ready for a Spooktacularly fun bake time with Bisou Bake Shop’s bestselling Creepy and Spooky Halloween Baking Kits ($55)! Kids absolutely loved these last year so to add to the ghoulish fun there’s now a new Chocolate Cookie variation, so that you can have dark and light cookies to decorate as well. These kits have all the dry ingredients pre-measured as well as different cookie cutters depending on the kit you’ve chosen! Creepy has a bat, witch’s hat and floating ghost cookie cutters and Spooky has pumpkin, spider web and flying ghost cookie cutters. Also included are sheets of baking paper, royal icing mix, piping bags and a selection of sprinkles to BOOtify your cookie! All you need to add are eggs and butter. If you already have the cutters from last year, why not just get the REFILL kits ($30) – everything you get from the usual baking kits, minus the cutters. Make these creepylicious cookies over two afternoons. On the first, make the dough and bake, and on the second afternoon, let your little bakers’ imaginations run wild as they take their time decorating! There are enough cookies to feed a hungry family with some left to give away come Trick or Treat time! Available now for pre-order, deliveries will be made from 18 October onwards.

We talk about some easy ways to make your own Halloween party at home here. One of our contributor’s ideas was to spookify ready-made snacks if you don’t have time to make your own from scratch! Grab some ready-made fun snacks from stores, and you can even just add spooky elements like vampire’s teeth to ring doughnuts, gummy worms to chocolate mousse or wrap some pastry around some hotdog sausages for a mummy-effect.

9. Jack-o-lantern Cheesy Quesadillas

If your carving skills are fine-tuned from all that faux-pumpkin carving, this will be a cinch! Simply grab two tortilla wraps, carve a jack-o-lantern face in the second one, sprinkle cheese (Red Leicester is great for colour) and tomato sauce or shredded chicken on the first wrap and sandwich the second wrap on top, then brush with butter and bake for 15 minutes or until the cheese is melty and shining through…wahhahahahaaaa!


10. Halloween Witch’s Hats
