Muffin Tin Monday - Halloween!

I've been waiting for this MTM theme for ages it seems. I actually made this muffin tin lunch a couple weeks ago and have just been itching to share it! :) This tin was shared by Paige and Ethan and gobbled up in no time!

Halloweeny top row treats:
- Frankenkiwi (or Kiwistein, if you rather!)
- witch's cauldron of spooktacular confections
- ghostly bananas

bottom row tricks:
- string cheese ghosts
- hot dog mummies
- zombie remains

These mini-sized hot dog mummies are made exactly the same way as the full sized mummy I made before, the hot dog was just cut in half to make two smaller sized versions!

Explanation of Zombie Remains: the mini mummies needed a side of ketchup bloodsauce, so I took my trusty sword zombie hunting and ... well, this is what was left. Dipping sauce for the mummies and a pile of zombie teeth. Ew.

Fizzle sizzle! Boil, toil and trouble! This witch's cauldron is brewing up a real mess! Cauldron contents: trail mix (pretzels, nuts and dried fruit) topped with two organic gummy worms (for realz, I got 'em from Whole Foods!) and a chocolate eyeball. Yum!

And for the pièce de résistance! My not-at-all frightful, totally delightful Kiwistein!

Frankenkiwi was totally inspired by the Little Bunny Foo Foo goon I made awhile back. :)

To fashion a kiwi Frankenstein I just sliced a little off the sides of the kiwi to make it more square-ish, peeled most of the fuzz off (leaving just enough for Frank's hairdo). The eyes are the same icing eyes I used for the goon, but I used my food safe markers to color the whites a monsterish yellow with red squiggles for a blood-shot look. :) So easy! The mouth and bolts are both made with halloween sprinkles! The bolts are tombstone shaped sprinkles! Teehee! These little kiwi guys are so fun to make. :)

What kind of creepy foods are on your menu this Halloween? Spill your guts ideas!
