• Decorate your Donettes with googly eyes, candy corn horns or a frosting witch hat for a spooky companion on the plate.
• Give your ScaryCakes or Spooky Twinkies an even more ghoulish look by drizzling them with melted chocolate for a spiderweb or mummy-wrapped look.
• Creepy crawlies are a classic Halloween decoration – turn Ding Dongs into spooky spiders with pretzel sticks or sour straws.
