Halloween is such a fun theme – from the decorations to the desserts. With that in mind, I have listed some of our very favorite (and MOST POPULAR) Halloween treats.
From Halloween cakes topped with cookie tombstones to pumpkin spice dump cake, these recipes are fun and would make the perfect sweet treat to end your party.
These sweets will be a HUGE hit at any Halloween party and the best part is they’re super easy to make!
With candies, eyeballs, sprinkles, chocolate chips, Halloween-themed ingredients, and more – these treats are perfectly festive for your October gathering.
How Can I Turn a Regular Dessert Into a Halloween One?
Colors. Black, brown, orange, purple, bright green, and pink are all great Halloween choices.
Embellishments. Add Halloween sprinkles and festive candies (for added fun and flavor). Halloween toppers, like plastic spiders, are also great additions. Top any treat with candy eyeballs, or your favorite Halloween candy like gummy worms, for an instant transformation.
Serving trays. Use spooky and fun Halloween-themed serving trays to enhance the overall feel. Decorate the serving table with Jack-o-lanterns, ghouls, goblins, or spooky skeletons for pops of Halloween fun!
How Many Desserts Should I Prepare?
No matter how many options are available, plan for party guests to have 2 total servings of dessert.
Make Ahead of Time?
Most of these treats can be made at least a day ahead of time, while others can be made even further in advance. See the individual posts for storage info.
