Halloween Cupcakes Ideas

Halloween is just around the corner and we all have to start thinking about some Halloween ideas and what we want to do to celebrate it this year; whether it’s a Halloween party, Halloween food, Halloween decoration ideas or just having fun with some Halloween fancy dress:

• Halloween cupcakes
• Halloween decorations for the home
• Halloween punch
• Halloween pumpkins
• Halloween games (Halloween horror film quiz)

There are lots of things to consider. Let’s start with our speciality: the cupcakes!

Halloween Cupcakes Ingredients

• 100g of Butter
• 100g of Sugar
• 150g Flour
• 1 Teaspoon of Vanilla essence
• 2 Eggs
• 150g of milk chocolate

If you are unsure or don’t know how to make these Halloween cupcakes; you can visit an old post for full recipe instructions by clicking the link “Chocolate cupcake recipe” and following our 5 simple steps.

Halloween Cupcake Topping Ingredients

• 100g Butter
• 300g Icing sugar
• ½ teaspoon of vanilla essence
• Orange food colouring (The quantity depends how orange you want your cupcakes – you can also use other food colouring colours to create other various designs such as purple, red, green and black)

Some Halloween cupcakes can be decorated to look like: pumpkins, ghosts, spiders, webs, monsters and black cats – for the less adventurous cook, you can just use standard baking Halloween sweets or Halloween coloured food colouring for your icing.

If you don’t remember how to make the Halloween toppings, you can visit an old post for full recipe instructions by clicking the link “Cream Cheese Topping” (be sure you adapt the instructions with the new ingredients as for this recipe you won’t be including cheese)

Now is time to be creative and make the Halloween topping! YAY!

• Do you remember what we did with the icing syringe?  First fill the icing syringe with the topping and start building a spider web on top of the cupcake. After that we can add spider decorations.
• Next add the normal topping onto the Halloween cupcake, placing the Halloween sweets on top.

I think this party is going to be really good and I’m looking forward to it as it’s going to be my first Halloween party in the UK. I have been looking for my witch fancy dress, but there is so many I can’t decide which one I want.

See you soon cupcake lovers!
