Due to the pandemic this year, chances are pretty high that many won’t go trick-or-treating at all. But that doesn’t mean it cannot be celebrated. Just like we all are getting used to the new normal, instead of trick-or-treating, an indoor Halloween party for the kids could be organised at home or in the backyard (number of people can be limited to even 6). The house could be decorated with all things DIY (for more DIY Halloween craft ideas click here), you can make spooky Halloween themed food, a tent could be organised for the kids in the backyard where they can watch scary kids movies with their parents. The fun doesn’t have to stop at all!
From pizzas and pies to cookies and cupcakes there is so much you can play with on this day. Bring out your creativity and transform any simple savoury dish or chocolatey dessert into something spooky and scary. Because it only comes once a year and you don’t want to miss out on all the fun!
Keeping that in mind, we’ve curated a list of Halloween food and snack ideas you can for your next get-together or party! We bet you anything that it’ll be a major hit, whether it’s a Halloween party for kids or adults!
