Halloween is here!
While you’re feasting on pumpkin soup and all forms of sugar from trick or treating, make sure to schedule in some on-theme snacks, too.
I’ve got you covered, with recipes for creepy crumpet pizzas, ghostly peppers, and witches’ brooms.
Not only do they look wonderfully spooky, they also taste great – and are easy enough to make that you can get the kids involved in the prep.
Here’s how to make these Halloween treats.

Witches’ brooms
Ingredients:
Think bread sticks Cheese strings Chives
Method:
Pull a cheese string 1/3 of the way to resemble a broom brush. Cut it so there is 1.5cm left on top. Make a hole (I use a chopstick). Slide in the bread stick and tie with a chive.
