21 Reasons Why “Hocus Pocus” Is The Best And Most Important Part Of Halloween

Growing a Jeweled Rose shares a how to for making these lil smoke bombs for the young ones. Baby powder and, eggshells and a couple other items and your little ones can have big smiles at halloween too. I think these could be made with red white and blue stripes for the 4th of July as well, I know a lot of little ones are afraid of the loud noises of fire crackers so this would let them participate without the noises.

Broken Glass Cupcakes

1 Can white frosting
1 Box Red Velvet Cake Mix

Sugar Glass:
2 cups water
1 cup light corn syrup
3 1/2 cups white sugar
1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar

Edible Blood:

1/2 cup light corn syrup
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1/4 cup water, or more as needed
15 drops red food coloring
3 drops blue food coloring

Prepare Red Velvet Cake Mix according to box, line cupcake tins with paper cupcake liners.
Divide cake batter between lined cupcake tins.
Bake according to box instructions.
Let cool and frost cupcakes with white frosting.

Make the sugar glass.

Mix 2 cups water, 1 cup corn syrup, white sugar, and cream of tartar in a large saucepan; bring to a boil.
Use a candy thermometer and boil sugar syrup until temperature reaches 300 degrees (hard ball), stirring constantly. The mixture will thicken as water evaporates. When sugar reaches 300 degrees, quickly pour onto a metal baking pan. Cool until completely hardened. Break into "shards" using a meat mallet.

Make the edible blood.
Mix together 1/2 cup corn syrup and cornstarch in a large bowl. Slowly stir in the 1/4 cup of water, adding more if necessary, until the corn syrup mixture has thickened to the consistency of blood. Stir in the red and blue food coloring.

Stab each frosted cupcake with a few shards of broken sugar glass. Drizzle on drops of "blood" to complete the effect.

The one who panics and runs up the stairs instead of out the front door :
The one who is brave enough to fight the killer ... but still ends up dead :
The one who sacrifices themselves to save the others :
The one who tells everyone to Calm Down ... and then freaks out :
The one who figures out who the killer is :

The one who snapped and began to killer the others :
The one who seeks a deeper understanding of the killer ... and dies anyway :
The one who survives until the end ...
