		<description><![CDATA[I have been busy with the preperations for this years Halloween party and I just wanted to share some of the photos with you. My daughters class were invited (she&#8217;s in fifth grade) and the menu was: Witches brew, Batwings, Frankenpizza, Broomsticks, Poison cake, Dead finger cookies and bloody cupcakes. My daughter and I had also made a Bat Pinata filled with treat bags. This was a big hit and they all requested a pumpkin pinata next year&#8230;&#8230;. Let me show you some photos! The garage were decorated with crepe paper garlands, and lots of flying bats. Bats flying over the buffet table. The wall were decorated with cobwebs and spiders. My favorite Halloween prop&#8230;.a cage with two rats. The Windows were decorated with real cobwebs and draped cheesecloth. We had two tables where the kids would sit while they were eating. Later we removed the tables so they could dance. My cabinet of horror. The kids thought that this was really gross. I had filled old bottles with tinted water and the jar with intestines is just noodles. This year I had also bought props like a brain and a cut off hand. No Halloween without a Jack O [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[When I got the chance to buy some paper straws I just knew what I would make&#8230;..cake bunting! So I decided to make a vintage style Halloween cake decorated with cake bunting and in the colors: white, black and orange (my favorite colors for Halloween) Inside, is a chocolate cake filled with vanilla bean buttercream. I have covered it with a white meringue frosting (I just used the meringue part from the Italian Meringue Buttercream recipe) which goes so well with chocolate cake. I used a spatular to spread on the frosting&#8230; love this technique since it don&#8217;t have to be super perfect. The small pumpkins is made out of fondant, that I have kneaded with a little Tylo powder (GumTex). This helps the fondant to hold the shape and prevent it from getting soft to quickly when placed in the frosting. I made the stems and vines out of wire covered with floral tape (should be removed if the pumpkins will be eaten). I twisted the &#8220;wines&#8221; around a pencil to make them curly. For the cake bunting I painted two wooden beads with black acrylic paint and hot glued them to the paper straws. Then I tied the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I know that many of you have seen vibrant coloured cakes for years. But back in the days when I was a kid, a cake with this colour was very special. This (Danish) cake bring back so many childhood memories to me and I have always known it as the The Poison Cake! Basically it&#8217;s just an almond flavoured cake, coloured green. Green and perfect for Halloween! The cake is super moist and I like to eat it with a big glass of cold milk. On top of the cake is a thin spread of cocoa icing (powdered icing sugar and unsweetened cocoa powder) If you want it a little more festive, you can sprinkle some fun Halloween sprinkles on top. Halloween poison cake Preheat oven to 350 F (175 C) 9&#8243;x13&#8243;rectangle cake pan, prepared with parchment paper or cake release. Ingredients: 375 grams sugar (2 cups) 250 grams soft unsalted butter (9 oz) 3 large eggs 250 grams all purpose flour (1 3/4 cup) 1 1/2 teaspoon baking powder pinch of salt 250 ml milk (room temperature) (1 1/8 cup) 2-3 teaspoons almond extract (Vanilla can be used instead) Green food colouring Cocoa icing: Powdered icing sugar (I never [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I am thinking out possible treats for our haunted Halloween party. Maybe will these brownie bites be on the menu? Jack Skellington the pumpkin king, is so easy to make. Just cut out a white fondant disc and some black fondant for his eyes and nose and a black gourmet writer (Americolor) for the mouth. I have used a little dab of buttercream to keep the Jack&#8217;s in place on top of the brownie bites. I always use this recipe for the brownies. If you use milk chocolate the taste is more mild if your kids don&#8217;t like a strong chocolate taste. Happy Caking! Louise]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[One of my favourite Halloween treats are these dead finger sugar cookies. They are always a big hit! To keep the fingers as thin as possible during baking I roll out the dough thinly so it will keep the shape, as cookie dough tends to spread out. You can paint the almond nails with food colouring gels. I like to keep them natural with just a little dusting of cocoa powder, just like on the photo. This is what I use: Sugar cookie dough (please find recipe below) Pastry brush Plastic wrap 30-40 blanched almonds, cut into halves after the skin is removed 1 teaspoon dark cocoa powder + a little brush Baking sheets Knife Sugar cookie recipe: I get about 24-30 cookie fingers out of this portion. 2 large eggs (1 whole egg + 1 yolk. Use the leftover egg white for brushing the cookies) 1 teaspoon pure vanilla or almond extract 8 tablespoons (1 stick) (115 grams) unsalted butter, softened 1/2 cup (65 grams) confectioners&#8217; sugar 5 tablespoons (60 grams) granulated sugar Pinch of salt 1 2/3 cups (235 grams) all-purpose flour 1. In a bowl add the two types of sugar, vanilla extract, a pinch of salt [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Here are the Halloween cookies that we will be enjoying today. &#8220;Dead&#8221; fingers, green witches finger and then the Halloween cookies decorated with royal icing. I got inspired by the recipe from Martha Stewart for the &#8220;dead&#8221; and witches fingers. I gave both a light dusting with some cocoa powder. I think that I like the white ones the best. My Halloween cookies turned out just as I planed. I want to share a great tip with you. When decorating cookies then let them dry underneath a work lamp. It works really good and you can pipe the final details on the cookie the same day, of course depending on what time you start flooding your cookies. I will jump on my broomstick and fly out into the night. Happy Halloween everyone! Happy Caking! Louise]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I wanted to try out some new cookie shapes for Halloween so I sat down yet again and made some new Halloween templates: Ghost, bat, pumpkin, coffin and a rat. They were a little bit difficult to cut out by hand, so thats why I have only made two of each shape. I have also tried to make some &#8220;Witch fingers&#8221; out of the cookie dough. But the first batch ended up looking more like swollen fingers and not long, thin and &#8220;creepy&#8221;. So I had to make some adjustments with the new cookie dough and hopefully will the new &#8220;Witch fingers&#8221; turn out a lot better than the first ones (I will let you know) Btw if there are anyone who have experience with colored cookie dough. I would be happy to know if I should use: powder or gel colors in my cookie dough? Now I will go back into the kitchen and make some royal icing for the cookies so I can start on the fun part, decorating! Happy Caking! Louise]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I am already busy with the preparations for this years Halloween holiday and making Halloween cookie baskets is one of my (many) projects. I will be using them as gifts for friends and family this year and I still need to make seven more baskets. Just to see how they look with cookies, have I filled it with some pumpkin cookies. But I will also make other types of Halloween themed cookies like: Spiders, creepy eyes, ghosts, coffins and tombstones. Im sure that the receivers will be thrilled, when they get them for Halloween. What type of Halloween cookies do you bake? Do you have a favorite one or do you just bake a mixed variety of &#8220;frightening&#8221; cookies? Please tell me:-) Happy Caking!

		<description><![CDATA[I love the movie &#8220;The Nightmare before Christmas&#8221; so I wanted to try and make some cookie lollies with the pumpkin king Jack Skellington from Halloween town. He was pretty simple to make with only two colours involved. Its sugar cookies decorated with rolled fondant icing. His mouth was painted with gel paste. Sometimes it just have to be easy&#8230;.;-) Happy Caking! Louise]]></description>

The next photos is some I have recived from you! Halloween graveyard cake: This Halloween brownie graveyard is made by Gillian. Its decorated with cookie tombstones, ghosts and nice goodies. Gross Halloween cake: The next cake is SO scary and really gross This was actually made for a birthday boy, who wanted a gross cake for his birthday.
