Oooh I just love Halloween! Here are a few tricks for some Halloween treats, and a little inspiration to get you started. Don’t be scared- there’s no pastry bag required! I made these cupcakes with Pillsbury cake mix and frrosting, decorator gels and candies. Don”t forget the spider rings!

These are adorable,Amy! I love how easy they seem to make…my kids will love them, and I will love the simplicity! Seen a lot of cupcakes…but these are the best so far. Thank you for sharing your ideas!

Thanks Susan-
I like to make both large and mini cupcakes. One boxed cake mix will make 12 full size and 24 minis. I think the variety of sizes makes for the cutest display. The big spider is much cuter with baby spiders around it.
Best,
Amy

It’s totally cheating to use box mix and icing….but I will admit that they look amazingly cute!

Hi Linzi-
I’m a fan of both boxed cake mixes and from scratch, though I do prefer homemade frosting. Do you have a cupcake recipe that you really love? Send it along and I’ll post it!

Hi Amy!
I’m having a hard time finding the rope licorice in black…I’ve seen peel-apart in red…but so far, no black. Any suggestions?

Hi Susan-
Supreme Nut and Candy has black whip licorice. They also have an incredible selection of creepy gummy candy- and jut about anything else you might think of.
Have fun!
