CrEePy LiTtLe MoNsTeRs

This year for Halloween I decided to make creepy little monster treats. 

I used a traditional vanilla cupcake sponge & icing and just played around with them altering bite size layer cakes and cupcakes topped with DIY marshmallow and Oreo creepy monsters.

Did you prepare any Halloween treats? 

Halloween spooky dessert: Meringue Ghosts

Here is a little fun recipe i decided to try this weekend for the upcoming halloween festivities: The Meringue Ghosts. Simply make the meringue by whisking 4/5 egg whites until foamy then add about 1/2 tsp of cream of tartar (or salt) and when the mixture forms stiff peaks add 200g of extra fine sugar, continue whisking until no sugar granules can be felt in the meringue. Form ghost shapes using a piping bag and bake in the oven at 100 C for about 1 hour. For the eyes I used chocolate chips and decorating gel.
