Filled truffle balls with gold and glitter

Want to give your rum- or salted caramel-filled truffle balls an extra festive touch for New Year’s Eve? With a little edible glitter and festive cocktail sticks, you can easily transform the truffle balls into the most beautiful treats of the evening.

Halloween Cookies with Marshmallow Spiderwebs

Give your Halloween cake or "Swiss roll " an extra spooky look with spiderwebs made of marshmallows, googly eyes, and blood-red jam.

Put a generous amount of marshmallows in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave them for 10–20 seconds, until they are soft and slightly melted. Let them cool slightly.

Squeeze the soft marshmallow mixture a few times between your hands, then pull it through your fingers to form long, thin strands. Arrange the strands over the cake or Swiss roll until you’ve created a spiderweb pattern.

Small Halloween cookies with bleeding brains

With just a few ingredients, you can easily give your Halloween muffins or mini cakes an extra spooky twist.

All you need is white icing, walnuts, and a little blood-red jam.

Start by mixing up a white frosting and spreading it on top of your muffins or mini cakes. Then place a walnut in the center of each cake and press it gently into the frosting. The walnut’s shape and texture make it look like a little brain.

Finish with a little thin, red jam, which you spread over the walnut and let drip down a little over the white icing.

And just like that, you've created the effect of a bleeding brain in a very simple way.
