Witches’ broomsticks
This type of finger food is so easy to prepare. You will need pretzel sticks, a block of cheese and a pack of chives. To prepare, slice the cheese into strips the size of matchsticks. Put a stalk of chives on the surface you’re working. Place the cheese strips along the piece of chives. Be sure to leave about an inch on every side of uncovered chive.
Then, top with the pretzel stick. Pull the chive around the pretzel stick gently as you lift the cheese as well. Next, wrap the ends of the chive together. Arrange it on a serving platter, attached side down. Chill first before serving.
Monster Pops
This quick and exciting treat will make kids crave for more. You will need big marshmallows, lollipop sticks, sweet white chocolate, frosting, a block of floral foam and green food coloring. You can buy lollipop sticks at any of your local party store or craft shop.
To prepare, insert a lollipop stick into each marshmallow. Inside a double boiler or a pan in medium heat, melt the white chocolate and then slowly add a few drops of green food coloring. Stir constantly until it is mixed evenly with the chocolate. Remove the mixture from heat. Dip the marshmallow into the melted chocolate until it’s coated, but avoid dipping for too long to keep the marshmallow from melting.
Let it stay upright using the floral foam. Repeat the same process for the rest of the marshmallows. Once all have been coated, put in the fridge until the chocolate sets. Then you can start decorating with icing. Finally, stick the lollipops into a real or synthetic pumpkin or serve in floral foam.
