This Witches Cauldron Cupcake Recipe is AMAZING! I love that Halloween will soon be here and all the kiddos will be out on trick or treat night having a great time. The smell of the leaves when taking the kids out to trick or treat. It never fails, every year I smell someone burning leaves.
A few days before Halloween, we usually will have a get-together and have a huge hay ride for friends and family. We make a bunch of treats for the guests and we all have a great time. This Witches Cauldron Cupcake Recipe is always a part of the get-together. Yes, I make these for all the guests that come. They are Halloween colors and taste great as well. Everyone has a great time around the fire after a long hayride. We play bob for apples, tell stories around the fire and we even have a small haunted area set up for anyone wanting to go through the maze.
Who has a Halloween fall party without goodies? Not my family. We always make a lot of finger foods, punches, cupcakes, and candies. It is one of the biggest parties we have each year getting together. I am happy it is that time of year again and I will be adding these to the list of things to make again this year. I have quite the list going. It is growing more and more each day that passes.
Do you have a Halloween party that you attend each year? If so, what type of goodies do you see while there? Do you plan your own events each year? Are you making anything for Halloween or a party of your own? If you are planning on having a party, I hope that you will try this Witches Cauldron Cupcake Recipe. It is pretty simple and a nice looking cupcake to share with others. Have a great Fall Season and Enjoy!
