Today, I’m back in the kitchen with #SundaySupper and we’re working with Dixie Crystals to bring you some creative and “spooky” Halloween treats that you’re just going to “SCREAM” over!
I’m so glad that October is finally here. What’s so great about October? Well normally the leaves start changing, the days start to get a little cooler and ooo what’s that other thing that happens in October?
It’s that Holiday….at the end of the month…I think it might start with an H…….
You know what I’m talking about right?
Bahaha, HALLOWEEN!
We’ve only got a few more weeks until Halloween is here and you know that I’m bursting at the seams.
I’ve got a new apartment to decorate this year and I’m even thinking about having a little Halloween dinner/party. Well, I’m thinking about it, I haven’t totally made up my mind yet.
I was really sad at first that I wasn’t going to get to decorate our old house for Halloween but now that we’re in the new apartment I’m thinking of all kinda of great decorating ideas.
Since I’m thinking about a Halloween party I’m also thinking about Halloween party foods and sweet Halloween treats. I’m a total sucker for cute Halloween desserts.
So if we do have a party, guess what we’ll be serving up.
That’s right! I’ll have a huge cupcake stand full of these Cauldron Cupcakes.
Every year I switch out my Halloween themes for the house.
I bounce back and forth between The Nightmare Before Christmas and a Witch theme for the house and well, this year it’s going to be all about witches.
I’ll have old witch brooms in the corner, a witch wreath on the door, spell books on the coffee table and potion bottles on the bar.
Oh and of course these cupcakes, because where is a witch without her cauldron. Exactly!
Ok, ok, you convinced me. We’ll have the Halloween party! YAY!
But let’s talk cupcakes first. You’re ready, right?
So the entire Cauldron Cupcake is edible, including the actual Cauldron. The Cauldron for the Cauldron Cupcakes is made from 1/2 of the cupcakes that you’re going to bake and a wee bit of icing.
The Dixie Crystals Confectioners Powdered Sugar makes the most amazing icing for these Cauldron Cupcakes.
I’ve got the directions for you below, along with the recipe and directions for the cupcakes and icing.
Now don’t fret and get your striped witch socks in a knot. I know the directions and list of ingredients look a bit long but it just looks that way. 😉
These are actually very easy to make. I’m no cupcake decorator and I made them just fine. You’ll be fine, I know you will be.
Are you going to make these Cauldron Cupcakes for your little “witch or warlock”?
Let me know if you do! Snap a picture of them and tag me on Instagram or use the hashtag #BigBearsWife and show me on social media!
