Use a cauldron for your Halloween punch!
If you’re throwing a Halloween party this year, you’ll need something for your ghosts and goblins to drink. Try this green slime punch. It’s super easy to make, and it tastes really good. It’s also pretty spooky looking – especially when you float a few plastic eyeballs in the punch! You can also buy some cheap rubber snakes and have them “crawling” in and out of the punch. Be sure to serve the punch in a large black cauldron. The one below would be perfect, and you could also use it for St. Patrick’s Day parties and for pirate-themed parties by adding chocolate coins or foil-wrapped bubble gum!

Candy apples – great for Halloween!
Candied, or candy, apples just scream autumn! In many part of the U.S., fresh apples are abundant during the fall. They make perfect treats for Halloween. The best varieties for candy apple making are tart apples like Braeburn, Granny Smith, and Jonathan. You can find the wooden sticks at most kitchen shops and craft stores and in some grocery stores. The number of candied apples this recipe will make depends on the size of the apples you use. Smaller apples are better because they have more surface area.

What’s a Halloween party without caramel apples? You can use any type of apple for this recipe, but you’ll find that tart baking apples are better. The best apple for caramel apples is perhaps the Granny Smith. For the caramels, you want the square kind that are wrapped individually.

Halloween party idea
This is a fun dish for Halloween parties, and both kids and adults will like it. It’s easy to make and simple to decorate. As you can see by my photo, the results look like a cat’s face, in keeping with the Halloween theme. For a scarier looking cat, you could use black bell pepper pieces for the ears and red bell pepper strips for the eyes, nose, and mouth. For a black cat, cover the top layer with finely chopped black olives.
