Instructions

  1. Build the board by adding in groupings of the above ingredients considering varying the different colored items on the board.
  2. Roll the lunch meat into small rolls to place on the board.
  3. Using the small pumpkin cookie cutter cut the pumpkin shape out of the cheddar cheese slices.

To Make Blood Pretzels:

  1. In a small bowl, melt the red candy melts per package instructions along with the ¼ tsp of coconut oil.
  2. Spread the pretzels out on a large piece of waxed paper with some space in between.
  3. There are a few ways to sprinkle the “blood”. You can use a small paint brush and dip it into the candy melt and kind of splatter it onto the pretzels. I found the best way was to use a straw, dip the straw into the melted red candy and gently blow it onto the pretzels. Blowing the melted red candy onto the pretzels gives you a small dot splatter. You can also do some small drizzles by dipping the straw into the red candy melts and kind of flinging it across the pretzels for some lines of “blood” on the pretzels.
  4. Allow the pretzel “blood” to dry at room temperature or can chill in the refrigerator.

To Make Guacamole Spider Web:

  1. Place the guacamole in a new round container if desired or leave it in the container it came in if using store-bought.
  2. Place about 2 Tablespoons of sour cream into a sandwich-size resealable plastic bag. With scissors, snip off just a little bit at one of the corners, the smaller the snip the thinner the spider web line will be.
  3. To make the web, pipe out a cross shape onto the guacamole.
  4. Next, make diagonals across the cross shape.
  5. Next pipe small curves between the lines leaving some space as you move out toward the edge of the bowl.
