In years past, we have made these Halloween snacks:

Use a ghost (or gingerbread girl) cookie cutter and slices of mozzarella cheese to make ghosts to top a pizza.

Decorate containers of mandarin oranges or peaches, or add faces to clementines.

Use gauze or white electrical tape and some googly eyes to transform a drink box into a mummy.

Use mini Bundt pans to bake some pumpkin donuts. Add a green licorice stem and a sprinkling of cinnamon sugar.

Add a touch of icing to gingerbread men and turn them into skeletons.
