Fig and Raisin Spiders
These cute fig and raisin spiders make a great fun and healthy Halloween snack for kids - perfect for Halloween party food!
Equipment
- 24 cocktail sticks
Ingredients
- 3 figs
- big handful raisins
- 6 edible candy eyes
- 1 tube writing icing
Instructions
- Carefully thread four or five raisins onto a cocktail stick, leaving a section clear on one end to push into the fig. Repeat until you have eight raisin 'legs'.
- Push the eight legs into the fig, four on each side.
- Stick two candy eyeballs onto each spider, using writing icing as the glue (or go wild and give him the full eight eyes!).
- Repeat with the remaining figs until you have as many spiders as you want.
- Serve and enjoy!
Notes
Note: If you're making these to serve to a child, be sure to warn them about the cocktail sticks inside the 'legs' first! The raisins should be pulled off the stick to eat them rather than eaten from the stick.
