Blogtober Day 29: Halloween Baking & A Free Printable πŸŽƒ

Hi Honeys, 

Happy (nearly) Halloween πŸŽƒ  Yaaaaayy! It's my favourite holiday of the year!😊  This weekend is one for fun.πŸ’ƒ We have a dvd playlist (we're going to binge watch the Potter movies, starting that from tonight actuallyπŸ’–) we'll be making lovely homemade pizza for dinner tomorrow night and Hubby will be popping lots of popcorn.

We'll be  making up lots of wee bags of treats for visiting small humans, in case there are any this year. Last years Halloween was cancelled due to lock-down and Halloween just isn't Halloween unless our living room resembles a sweet shop with Hubby & I busy filling little treat bags.😊  

This year will seem a little odd, although it's felt like oddness has been a frequent visitor this past year or so.😊  We'll be wearing latex gloves etc while making the wee bags up and (as we always have) we bought sweets that are all individually wrapped. 

Being a self confessed germophobe, especially where my hands are concerned, I find the constant reminders to be washing your hands very comforting but I'm starting to wonder how long it'll be till we're all wearing hazmat suits everywhere.  Going by the media, who seem determined to scare everybody, it'll be a week from Tuesday.😊 

Not sure if we'll be doing any baking this weekend but I thought I'd share a little printable just in case you'd like to honeys.πŸ’

The orange silicone baking mould (shown above) is one of my favourites to bake with, I love silicone to bake with anyway and this one I've had for quite a few years now.  I got it from one of the pound shops and I'm so chuffed (happy😊) there are so many different designs available now.  

I don't think I have any Christmas ones yet, oddly enough. Although with the speed that time appears to be scooting past at (how is it almost November already?) I'll need my Easter egg shaped one soon.😊

The cakes in the photo above were made using the same basic sponge batter honeys.  This one...

The only difference I made was to pour it into the large silicone pumpkin moulds as well as the small Halloween paper cases.  I then used plain white icing to coat the small cakes and just sprinkled icing sugar over the top of the pumpkin cakes...

If you'd like to download a copy of the recipe sheet honeys, you can find it here.  Baking is such a fun activity for wee ones and it's even more fun to decorate the cakes.  Why not make up icing in different colours so your wee ones can be creative?  

Thank you for keeping me company today dear ones, till tomorrow, hugs x

Huggles Always, Rosie xx
