2. Snake Eggs
I found these large containers of green cheese balls from Target. I didn't take a picture of the tag but they are something Frankenstein. Sorry that's not much help.
I've found them late September or early October for three years now. They sell out fast so check early!
I've done grapes as SNAKE EGGS for our kid party before. Here are some other fun Halloween food ideas.
3. Severed Fingers

4. Petrified in Horror
I made my usual lasagna recipe but the final layer I used the meat to make an outline of a face. Covered with cheese and added black olives for the eyes and mouth.
Final step was to add a little pasta sauce around the eyes, nose, and mouth to make it stand out a little more.

6. Roaches
Dried strawberries from the bulk section at HEB (local grocery store)
Dried cherries work too.
7. Bloody Hand
I used a plastic hand mold
, soften cream cheese, and covered with raspberry chipotle sauce.
, soften cream cheese, and covered with raspberry chipotle sauce.
TIP: Put a piece of saran wrap down first and work the cream cheese into the mold. Place in refrigerator until ready to use. I usually make two by waiting until it's firm enough to remove from the mold and make the second one.
NOTE: I messed up my first year and froze the molded cream cheese. Bad idea!!! Cream cheese does not freeze well. Once thawed it crumbles and looses its normal consistency. So gross!!!!
8. Scabs
Beef jerky. That's it! Great snacking item and super easy! :)
9. Slime
Recipe HERE
10. Cured Epidermis
Wrap plastic skull with saran wrap and use tape to secure if needed. Cover with soft cheese spreadable cheese. I ended up using cream cheese. Olives for the eyes and roast beef for the head. (Last year I used prosciutto but it's really pricey)
Layer and press onto the cheese. I didn't have any problem with it falling off.
Filled the remaining tray with crackers, cheese, and lunch meat. I used salami, turkey, ham, and different crackers.
11. Raw Meat
This is a favorite!!! I love how it looks....so real!

12. Tongues
I found these gummy tongues at Target. Unfortunately I haven't seen them anywhere else. I would try late September early October.
One of the funniest things when all the kids discovered them.
13. Jello Brain
I've used this Large Brain Mold
for years!
for years!
The photo above was just strawberry jello.
I usually used water, a little evaporated milk to make it cloudy, green food color (couple drops) and two large boxes of watermelon jello. It looks a little more real. The mold also comes with instructions.
I even made one for our yearly zombie photo shoot. Look at my little zombies fighting over dinner.
14. Fresh Dog Poo
Recipe HERE
Lol!
15. Finger Food
Lays potato chips with gummy fingers. Get it? Finger food :)
16. Sour Cream & Onion Dip
Nothing creepy except I serve it in a zombie's head.
17. Pumpkin Vomit
Use your favorite salsa and mixed with soften cream cheese. I usually make this for parties and always say, "Try it. I promise it's good even if it looks like vomit." Lol. I probably shouldn't even give them a visual but it's become a running joke now. And that's how it became pumpkin vomit for Halloween.
I've made these for Halloween, April Fool's Day, Birthday - You're the Shit Cake, etc.
So fun and super easy!
Hope this gives you ideas for your next Halloween party!!
