MOST EXCELLENT HALLOWEEN PARTY
HAD SUCH GREAT FUN MAKING MUMMY'S TOES AND GRUESOME FOOD FOR ALL THE KIDS AND DECORATING THE HOUSE ALL SPOOKY
Made fabulous triple chocolate cupcakes and decorated with chocolate and vanilla butter icing, then the fun decorations moulded with sugar paste and icing pens, finished off the presentation with a spiders web cupcake casing. Pirate cup cake stand just magic...
CHEESEY HORROR FINGERS
MUMMY'S WRAPPED TOES
Cocktail sausage wrapped in a thin sliver of flour tortilla, I painted jam on the tortilla to encourage the wrap to stick and a thin square slice of red bell pepper for the toe nail...
HALLOWEEN PIZZA'S
Standard pizza dough with flour, salt, yeast and water, not left to prove at all to keep the dough as a thin crust, pasted with a tom puree, herbs and mozzarella, used black icing pen for the eyes, as guessed olives would give such a better effect but not really child friendly lol...
MUMMY WRAPPED SAUSAGES
Sausage mummies, lol half cooked some local pork chipolatas then let them cool and wrapped a strip of puff pastry painted with egg wash around the sausage, leaving room for the face, another egg wash and into the oven to finish off, a real smash hit with the kids.
WITCHES BREW RECIPE STATION
This was such fun, just lemon squash and natural red food dye in the fountain, plus lots of worms, cockroaches, fly's and bugs lol, then on the side some eyeballs, dead mans toes, teeth, jelly worms, bats poo and bugs, recipe cards on the wall for everyone to make their own witches or wizards brew, ice bucket full of skull and bones ice cubes and some sawn off fingers, pirate glasses to finish off.
Kids buffet station no adult supervision required lol let them loose...Standard and the best ever egg mayo sandwiches, ham sandwiches, pizza spooks, mummy's toes and fingers and mummy wrapped sausages, cherry toms spiked with witches hats, cheesey strings and carrot sticks...
PUMPKINS CARVED
COMFORT FOOD FOR US GUYS
Very easy hot buffet, hardly any effort so I can enjoy the party too...My biggest passion is bringing people together with food...Fantastic quality hot dogs and hand made buns, tommy k, mayo, mustard (know in my family as stripes) fried onions, chilli con carne and cheese (optional) but makes a fab chilli dog, (funny that is the name of our cocker spaniel...). Then twice ground chuck steak chilli con carne, with mexine chilli spice from mexico, big batch of rice. Made a roux nachos cheese sauce never ever done that before, I always believe in real cheese and the grill but for the buffet I have experimented for the nachos in the American style then realised done such a perfect job and it tasted just like American nachos cheese sauce that I had to up grade it, so Parmesan and mature local cheddar did the upgrade, thank you Mum, Dad and Clive, corn chips, home made guacamole, sour cream, red and green jalapenos, and personally a ton of fresh chopped garlic and chillies plus for me chilli con carne. Dad made his famous chick pea and chorizo soup stew, as usual none left so I didn't get any!!! and butternut squash and sweet potato soup. in all we did not get any left overs !!!
NOT TOO MUCH TO CLEAR UP
OH FEET UP!!!
