Spooky Season: Check Out These Cool Halloween Food Ideas! 🎃
Halloween is almost here! The American traditions related to this holiday are becoming more and more popular in Malta. Children love this holiday because they get to dress up in costumes and go around trick or treating. 🍭
But that doesn’t mean that us adults cannot enjoy it too! Halloween parties for adults are super fun, so if you’re planning on hosting one this year, check out these super cool ideas for snacks you can serve. 👇
Spider Oreos or Spider Crackers
If you want them to be sweet, go with the Oreos with liquorish spider legs. If you want them to be savoury, slab a bit of your favourite dip between two Ritz crackers and use salt sticks as spider legs. 🕷️
Don’t forget the eyes! Use some icing for sweet ones and the same dip with black olive slices for the savoury ones. 😋
Sausage Fingers
These are probably one of the easiest snacks you can prep for Halloween. All you need to do is cut off a little bit of the edge of some sausages to form a nail bed and make some small cuts in the middle for skin texture. 🌭
You can also add nails using pastry or onions and even spook it up by adding ketchup for a bloody effect. 🩸
Mummy Pizzas
Fresh out of the oven, not the tomb! Make some mini rectangular pizzas or ciabatta halves and create bandages using mozzarella or puff pastry (or both!) and you’ve got yourself a mummy pizza! 🍕
Puking Pumpkin Nachos & Guac
This is not your typical nachos and guacamole! You can keep your usual nachos and dip, just add a carved pumpkin to your display and place the guacamole as if it is coming out of the pumpkin’s mouth. 🎃
You can also use salsa or nacho cheese; any dip will work! ✌️
Graveyard Brownie Cups
These things are the cutest and they’re the perfect dessert for your Halloween party. Make your favourite brownie recipe, crumble it in a cup and layer with chocolate mousse to get some texture and different colours. 🍫
Add some tombstone biscuits (or tombstones made out of fondant) and gummy worms and you’re good to go! 😎
Skeleton Charcuterie Board
This is one of the coolest things I've ever seen! All you need to do is to set up a charcuterie board with your favourite cheeses and cold cuts, buy a skeleton prop and set it up around your board - the skull at the top, arms at the side, ribs above the board and legs at the bottom. 💀
Jack Skellington Cake Pops
If you don't know who Jack Skellington is (😱), please go and watch The Nightmare Before Christmas. And then make these cake pops. 🤤
Just make normal cake pops (any flavour you like), cover with white icing and decorate the face with black icing. 😍
Monster Eye Devilled Eggs
Monster Eye Devilled Eggs look super awesome and are relatively easy to make. You can make the green filling using the cooked yolk, green food colouring and mayo, whereas the pupil can be made with a thinly sliced radish and black olive slices. 🧟
Scary Pumpkin Mini Pies
Think of mini pies in the form of ravioli but in the shape of pumpkins with different scary faces. Cool, right? 👻
The filling can be anything you want, so there's more room to get creative here! 🤩
Graveyard Sandwiches
Sandwiches are always a hit at a party. These ones will be an even bigger hit! Make any sandwiches you want and cut them into shapes of coffins, tombstones, or whatever Halloween-related item you wish! ⚰️
