6 Of The Spookiest Halloween Treats

Halloween is such a fun time of year because of all the spooky things you can do, like Halloween-themed food and drink. Whether you are throwing a party or just want to spice up your Halloween night, here are some ideas based on some spooky inspiration.
With Halloween only being a few days away, I thought it was a good idea to share some ideas for Halloween-themed food and drinks. This list has a variety of ideas, such as main meals, snacks and beverages. I will also include Pinterest links to all the recipes for exact measurements.
All the food and drinks I am sharing on this list are relatively easy, but can differ on your preference. You’ll see what I mean down below.
Bloody Pretzels
A fun and easy snack to make, and very tasty. It’s the best of both worlds being sweet and salty.
Ingredients:
- Whole pretzels
- White chocolate chips
- Red food colouring

Steps:
- Bring a pot of water to a steam, not boil
- Put another pot or bowl overtop of the hot water- keeping the water on the burner
- If you have a double boiler use that
- Pour white chocolate into bowl and stir until it’s melted
- Dip the pretzels in the white chocolate
- Take some of the melted chocolate and add red food colouring, then drizzle over top of the pretzels
- Let dry.
Ghost Fruit Skewers
These are so cute, and healthy at the same time. They are a super easy snack to make, but also a healthier option.
Ingredients:
- Assorted fruit like strawberries, grapes, pineapple, etc.
- Skewers
- Marshmallows
- Edible ink or black frosting
- Can make your own or get premade

Steps:
