Halloween is a little over two weeks away, which means that parties, pumpkin carving and trick-or-treating will be starting even sooner! While I’ve never been very into the getting dressed up in a costume aspect of Halloween, I am definitely 100% on board with the candy! I love any excuse to buy more candy and convert it into something even more delicious. Whether you’re looking for something creative to serve at your own party or to send in to school with the kids, this list definitely has you covered. It’s got a little bit of everything – sweet, savory, candy, witches, ghosts and goblins!

I go ALL OUT for Halloween foods for a big party every year! I make those Icky Intestines each time and everyone loves them! I do Nutella and then a I do a marzipan/raspberry jam version. I also roast fingerling potatoes until they are wrinkly and serve with a garlic aoli. They’re scary monster fingers.

The best way to use up “old” candy that’s been left sitting around after Halloween — it’s so good you can even take it as a treat and share with others.
