Chocolate Fix

Melt dark, milk and white chocolate and pour into bat, vampire teeth and spider-shaped moulds. Leave to set for a delicious treat. If you can’t find moulds at short notice, pour the melted chocolate into a squeezy bottle and squiggle shapes onto a baking sheet. Leave to set. Set aside some of the melted chocolate and dip some dried orange peel slivers for a Halloween color scheme and arrange your chocolates on top.

Get Innovative

There’s no need to reinvent the wheel: when it comes to kids’ finger foods, burgers and pizza are the safest way to go. Grill up a batch of mini burgers and cut scary faces out of the cheese slices on top. You can be more creative with pizza, baking either a large one with a spider’s web or ghost cutouts made from mozzarella or mini mummy pizzas. Stretch mozzarella into slivers and drizzle atop the pizza; use two olive rounds for eyes.

Eye Candy

Too lazy to make anything at home? You can pick up some store-bought mini cakes or chocolates and arrange them on a platter. Place toy plastic spiders and other creepy crawlies around the sweets for dramatic effect. You can also make pumpkin “baskets” out of plastic bowls for your children to take trick or treating. Paint the bowls orange and using a permanent marker draw on scary faces. Use a satin sash glued on the sides for a handle.
