A FEW TRICKS FOR MAKING SWEET TREATS Decorating your own cookies and cupcakes for Halloween is easy and fun. Keep your color palette simple with orange, black and white, and you can create jack-o-lanterns, ghosts, skulls, candy corn and more. To get the most bang for your buck, make (or buy) a big batch of white frosting, and tint it to your liking with food coloring. Add in nonpariels, sugar sprinkles, candy eyeballs, themed picks and wrappers for cupcakes, and even icing gel and spray on color mist.
