Team Halloween or Team No-Halloween?
There are two kinds of people: those who say Halloween is just an American holiday that doesn't affect us, and those who love the pumpkin, costumes, colors, and everything the night of October 31 means.
We in doubt are ready to welcome the scariest holiday there is again this year !
To experience it at its best you really need a few simple ingredients: a terrifying mask, candy galore, and an ad hoc selection of horror movies.
If you are a lover of the more classic scary Halloween with friends, here are some tips for you: carve a pumpkin to put at the entrance as a welcome, make some themed cookies and a great Bloody Mary.
To do it right, we leave you with some tips on what the perfect tools to use are.
Pumpkin carving
After hollowing it out thoroughly, it's time to finish it off with triangle eyes and gaping jaws. So arm yourself with pipe cleaners, diggers and paring tools so that the trimming is easy, quick and as precise as possible. The finishing touch could be a row of lights from the inside creating shadow play with the outline of the pumpkin.
Trick or treat? Trick!
To welcome your guests it will then be necessary to offer them something sweet and put them at ease, before unleashing terrifying tricks. We recommend going classic and making pumpkin and ghost-shaped shortbread cookies, or small cup cakes decorated with professional sac-a-poche to be presented in themed ramekins.
Bloody Mary
By now everyone knows that the name of the famous cocktail made with tomato juice and vodka comes from the famous English queen, but not everyone knows that there are fantastic tikis in which to present the drink to make it even more eye-catching and ice molds in the shape of skulls!
Then there are really perfect accessories to decorate any self-respecting Halloween table: orange napkins, jellies that can become accompaniments to dishes to be presented in special tubes of food-grade toothpaste, chef's aprons complete with skulls, and black dye to make any drink really dark.
What about you, are you ready?
