Halloween is quickly approaching, and I’ve got another fun dessert for you! I saw these candy cleavers in a grocery store around Halloween last year and snatched them up. The package had a picture of the cupcakes I did below on it. I love seeing pictures of creative desserts and making them at home. They were super easy and a lot of fun. The cleavers are sold out on Wilton’s website, but they’re still available on Amazon. I just took a simple box cake mix to make the cupcakes, and this recipe to whip up a quick cream cheese frosting. Then I picked up this red decorating gel at the store. All that was left was the assembly. They were a huge hit in our house!
Do you like to make festive deserts for the Holidays? What are some of your favorites?
Also guys, please don’t forget to donate to City of Hope in honor of my dear friend Tom battling cancer. The race is November 14th, so get those donations in before then so we can reach our goal. Remember, even just $1 makes a difference!
I love everything from cake to kale. Life is all about balance. I like to live, laugh and love to the fullest! Our time is too short not to enjoy ourselves.
Yay! These are so adorable. I love the knife. 😀 Happy FF to you and have a lovely weekend!
Thank you Jhuls! Happy FF to you too. Have a great weekend 🙂

Hi Sarah, creative indeed! Have a safe and fun Weekend. Your Fl. Bud Cheryl
Thanks Cheryl! Have a great weekend 🙂
Great looking cleavers!!
Thanks Fitz!
I saw those “knives” at my local bake store – ha!ha! I bought the ghosts holding a candy corn and frankenstein. Wilton does come up with some cute things 🙂
Oh, those sound great! They do come up with the cutest stuff 🙂
Sarah, these little cleavers are a hit! So party worthy! I have to admit I’ve never been that festive . . . that is, until I stopped working like 80 hours a week in a law office . . . this is honestly the first year I’ve even gotten a pumpkin . . . and I may yet get a Christmas tree! But I see that festivity can come in little packages, too, so thank you for the heads up. Have a wonderful weekend!
Wow, 80 hours a week! Hard to be festive with that little time on your hands. So happy you’ve gotten a pumpkin and definitely get the tree 🙂 It can, just a little something here or there really brings my spirit up. Happy Friday and hope you have a wonderful weekend as well!
These are so cool! I wish I had a reason to make more festive halloween treats!
Thanks Michelle! No reason needed, you can make them anyway 🙂
Love it, Sarah 🙂 Happy Fiesta Friday!
Thanks! Have a great weekend 🙂
