I kept filling a big bowl with little bits until I created something that looked about right.  You can get creative with this mix -anything sweet or salty would do. I can imagine adding chocolate chips or a dash of Halloween sprinkles would be amazing.

Candy Corn Punch
​Halloween is one of those times that I say “good bye” to our regular “sugar aware” diet and this punch definitely embraces this! 

There is no exact science to this spirited concoction. I mixed equal parts orange juice and sparkling water to achieve this seasonal hue. You could probably also add some orange soda if you wanted to increase the sweetness a bit. For a little extra, I froze pineapple chunks in an ice cube tray and let them float.  As they melted, they gave the punch a bit of a kick!  I garnished each cup with a swirl of whipped cream and tossed a few candy corns on top of that for good measure. 

Chocolate Covered Apples
Those candy apples in the shops always look so amazing.  You know the ones - those giant orbs of caramel goo that call to you at every time you enter the supermarket. Once we bite into them, I am instantly filled with regret and my daughter is basically covered head to toe in candy.    This year I learned my lesson - in order to avoid the mess I dipped slices of apple in chocolate and decorated them with Halloween sprinkles.  They took about 5 minutes to make and were a huge hit at the party. You can switch chocolate for caramel pretty easily- the best party is there is almost zero waste!
