How to Make a Halloween Treat Board

Creating a Halloween treat board is a fun and festive way to serve a variety of snacks and treats at a Halloween party or get-together. Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to make one:

 Materials and Supplies:

-A large serving board, 

  platter, or tray 

-Small bowls, ramekins, 

  or containers 

-Halloween-themed decorations (e.g., plastic spiders, fake cobwebs, mini pumpkins)

 Ingredients and Treat Ideas:

Choose a mix of treats to create a well-balanced Halloween treat board. You can do all candy and dessert items or make a mix of sweet and savory by mixing in some salty pretzels or popcorn. Try to get a variety of colors and textures. 

Here are some ideas: 

• Sugar cookies shaped like ghosts, bats and pumpkins, or frosted in Halloween colors like orange, black, purple or green

• Brownie bites or cake pops dipped in orange and black icing or topped with Halloween sprinkles 

• Candy corn 

• Gummy worms or gummy spiders

• Soft caramels 

• Candy in Halloween theme wrapping 

   or in Halloween colors  

• Halloween marshmallows (look for ghosts, Frankenstein and pumpkin shapes this time of year) 

• Pretzels in Halloween shapes 

• Popcorn balls or popcorn mix in Halloween flavors or colors

Steps to Create Your Halloween Treat Board:

• Arrange the small bowls or containers on the board to hold smaller candies. Place them evenly across the board for balance. 

• Add the larger treats first in a visually appealing manner. You can create clusters, or prop items up to make it visually interesting. 

• Fill in gaps with piles of smaller candy items, such as gummy worms, marshmallows, soft caramels, etc. 

• Sprinkle Halloween-themed decorations around the board. Use plastic spiders, fake cobwebs, mini pumpkins, or any other spooky decorations you have on hand.
