Dip a skewer into red food gel colouring and push into vanilla frosted cupcakes, dragging through the icing to resemble vampire teeth.

Chocolate skeletons 

Dip mini pretzels into white melted chocolate to coat and allow to set. Take squares of brownie and insert a 16cm wooden skewer just back from the centre. Thread 6-7 choc coated pretzels onto the skewer to create the body, using some small mini-marshmallows as feet if you like. Use a black edible writing pen to draw a face on a white marshmallow and then attach to top of skewer to complete skeleton. Wrap in cellophane and tie with ribbon.

Bulging hands

Fill the fingertips of food-safe disposable gloves with Strawberries and Cream lollies to imitate finger nails. Fill gloves with plain or flavoured popcorn and tie the ends with string or ribbon. Attach a small plastic spider to ribbon.
