Spooky Halloween Platter (2)

Ingredients:

• Mini Babybel cheeses

• Pretzel sticks

• Black olives

• Small crackers

• Laughing Cow Cheese Triangles

• Clementines

• Cucumber

• Baby peppers

• Cherry tomatoes

• Edible eye sprinkles

• Black grapes

• Blueberries

Method:

De-wax the mini Babybel Cheeses. Break the pretzel sticks into small pieces and push them into the sides of the cheese for spider legs. Finish the spiders with slices of black olives for eyes. Remove packaging from Laughing Cow cheese Triangles and pop into a disposable piping bag. Snip off the end and pipe cheese ‘bandages’ over crackers to make mummies. Finish the mummies with black olive slice eyes. 

Peel clementines and top with cucumber slicks to make pumpkins. Use Laughing Cow cheese to stick edible eye sprinkles to baby peppers and cherry tomatoes to make monster veggies.

Place all your spooky Halloween foods on a large platter or tray and fill in the gaps with cucumber sticks, black grapes and blueberries. Decorate with toy spiders for extra creepiness!

Actually, I think that these platters could be really useful (without the spooky bits!) as Christmas Platters.
