Halloween

October Favorites

/ sarahgiebens / 4 Comments

Hi guys!

How was Halloween?

If I could, I’d skip November and most of December to go straight to Christmas! Or a couple of days before so I can buy presents 😉 I just love it so much. The lights in the streets, being together with family, making lovely desserts, giving each other presents, … All that 🙂 Are you excited for Christmas?

We’re not getting in the Holiday spirit just yet. Let’s take a look at the October Favorites first! We’ll get in the mood for Christmas on Tuesday 😉

Zombie Unicorn Cake for Halloween

/ sarahgiebens / 20 Comments

Hi guys!

Happy Halloween!

I bet lots of you are going out tonight in fabulous and terrifying outfits. Others may go door to door with the kids or send the kids to go Trick or Treat-ing. Some of you are going to watch horror movies. If you’re wondering what I’m doing tonight, I think we can rule out the latter. I will be baking tonight, but not for Halloween.

My final Halloween experiment was born last Sunday. Or should I say ‘died’ last Sunday? Don’t know. You tell me 😉

May I present to you: Misses Zombie Unicorn!

Black Cat Halloween Cake

/ sarahgiebens / Leave a comment

Hi guys!

I’ve seen amazing, really scary Halloween creations in the past few weeks. My Mummies weren’t really scary and today’s Halloween recipe isn’t either. But I just love cute Halloweens xD Remember the Frankenstein Cupcakes from last year? Not so scary. See, I have a theme when it comes to Halloween…

Some people want it to be scary, others want it to be cute and another group just doesn’t do Halloween. I for one enjoy it very much, as long as it’s not too scary. You can guess by now that I don’t do horror movies or Halloween ghostrides in theme parks, right?
Yes, I’m easily scared. Yes, I know some may say that’s silly. No, I do not care.

Today’s Halloween recipe may be one for all people. It’s a Black Cat Cake! It’s definitely not scary but it can cause a severe case of Death By Chocolate. Be careful!

Mummy Brownies for Halloween

/ sarahgiebens / Leave a comment

Hi guys!

I haven’t been abducted by ghosts or black cats. I was busy trying some Halloween recipes for you! And I kinda took a week off. Sometimes you just need to go offline for a while. Get in touch with that inner you or catch up with some friends.
Or series in my case…

Series? Don’t you have to bake something? Yes. Yes, I do. But my dishwasher didn’t feel the same way. He broke down on Saturday. So “Sundays are for baking” suddenly changed to “Sundays are for cleaning”, dish washing and dish washing 😦 I think you can imagine how I felt after that so baking was the last thing on my mind that day because I really didn’t want to do some dish washing again… So instead, I binge-watched Pretty Little liars on Netflix which was the perfect alternative because I’m now almost at the end! Yay!

But I do have a Halloween recipe for you today! It’s cute, not aggressive and perfect to make with the kids: Mummy Brownies!

Spiderweb Pumpkin Cheesecake for Halloween

/ sarahgiebens / 3 Comments

Hi guys!

We’ve had Halloween Cupcakes and Cookies. Now it’s time for a Halloween Cheesecake! What seasonal veggie could be better to play the lead in today’s Halloween recipe than pumpkin? None I tell you 🙂

Pumpkins always remind me of October and of Halloween. Always. So of course one of my Halloween recipes had to feature pumpkins. I mean, come on. Pumpkins are veggies that can’t be ignored or they’ll turn ugly, agressive and mean. Oh wait, that’s my neighbour’s fabulous carved out pumpkin I’m describing… Anyways, it’s pumpkin recipe time today!

Chocolate Chip Vampire Cookies for Halloween

/ sarahgiebens / 10 Comments

Hi guys!

Do you know the story about that cute, little nerdy Cookie that went bad? No? Let me tell you.

Nerdy Nummies Smart Cookie

Once upon a Halloween night, Nerdy Cookie felt bored. He thought a walk outside might make him feel better. But he was too afraid to go outside on Halloween, so instead, he grabbed some sweets, installed himelf on the couch and chose a funny movie to watch. Little did he know that eating vampire teeth on Halloween would have a very different outcome than a little bit of a stomach-ache. Continue reading →

6 Awesome Halloween Recipes

/ sarahgiebens / 4 Comments

Hi guys!

Tomorrow is Halloween! I can’t believe it’s here already…
I started off so well with my Spider Web Cupcakes… I actually thought I was going to be able to make lots of Halloween recipes this year! I guess I underestimated the life of a working person. No, I don’t have to work until midnight or something but I really am tired when I come home and I barely feel like baking something, let alone turn on the computer (again) and write something. Sounds silly, I know.

But you’re not here to read all this crap, right. You’re here for the 6 awesome Halloween recipes! I saw it as my duty to give you guys the Halloween you all deserve: one with lots of fun recipe ideas! Soooo I looked around and found some great Halloween recipes 🙂

Let’s get this Halloween started!

#1: Boo-licious Ghost Meringue Tarts

Boolicious

Spiders! Mariah from Giggles Galore is so right about these. She said it’s funny how the things that scare her in real life are her favorite things to make at Halloween. I completely agree! I’m scared of spiders too but I love these ones!

Spooky-Ice-Cream-Sandwich-Bats

These Bats are adorable! They’re perfect for Halloween and I bet (or bat 😉 ) kids will love them! I know Laura from Laura’s Little House Tips will have a great Halloween with these.

Love it! Isn’t this a very very cute little Halloween recipe? Carrie from Frugal Foodie Mama made this for her 2,5 year old daughter who is a little bit scared by all things Halloween.  She wanted a not-so-scary treat based on Disney that was still Halloween perfect. So sweet!
