With Halloween right around the corner, the kids have been anxiously waiting for the day that they can wear their Power Ranger costumes. As much as I’d love to be able to make their costumes each year like my mom did growing up, I didn’t acquire her sewing skills at all and will gladly order what they want to be. But if you need a dessert or Halloween Cupcakes for the school Halloween party or neighborhood get together, I’ll gladly spend hours in kitchen doing what I love, baking.

Add a spooky touch to any cupcake with these Halloween cupcake candy decorations – tarantula-shaped gummies, realistic gummy earthworms, and gummy eyeballs.

I have to admit, I’m not sure I could have eaten those Halloween Cupcakes with an earthworm on them if I spotted them at the dessert table, they really do look like real worms. The kids on the other hand thought they were the greatest, especially if they had one hanging out of their mouth and bumped into an unsuspecting friend who though they were eating a real worm.
