Recipes Leftover Halloween Candy

Can You Freeze Halloween Candy

I have surveyed many blogs and here are all the things I found you can do with your leftover Halloween candy:

Make an “Eco-Friendly Edible Wreath” – Use Tootsie Rolls, Tootsie Pops, Starburst etc. and you will have a lovely Thanksgiving or Christmas decoration.

Keep your candy in a cool place for storage and then use it over the holidays – Use the candy for stocking stuffers, parties and to decorate gifts. This saves money on buying treats throughout the holidays.

Find recipes using leftover halloween candy such as: Carmel Fudge Cake, Hershey Bar Cake, Butterfinger Cake, Heath Bar Cake.

Fun with Snow


How to Make Snow Paint

I found these instructions on how to make snow paint while I was looking for cheap Christmas gift ideas. What a great idea! I grew up in the Midwest and though I made snow angels and snowmen, I never did this but it sure sounds like fun.

Follow these instructions and have fun with snow:

1. Fill squeeze bottles with water.
2. Add a few drops of food coloring to each one.
3. Shake until well mixed.
4. Add more food coloring to darken your colors, if desired.
5. Then, screw the lids back onto the bottles, and send the kids outside for some snow painting fun.
