What are we doing talking about Halloween already? Let's just address this elephant in the room. Halloween treats are delicious, completely indulgent, and kind of a pain to plan if you're hosting a party. With that in mind, welcome to our Halloween snack series. We'll bring you a collection of themed spooky snacks every couple of weeks so you stop worrying about the sweets and focus on your contest-winning costume. We kicked it off with pumpkin-inspired party fare, moved on to ghastly ghosts snacks and now we're bringing you yummy mummy treats, with options that are good for the whole family, even the really little ones. They might not be scary, but they're all deviously delicious. Are your kids into something a little scarier? Try some disgustingly delicious treats that really get into the spooky spirit.
