Let it never be said that I don't play my part in pumping the little monsters and ghouls of Limerick full of sugar. Tonight is the beginning of the Celtic new year when the gods can roam freely in our world playing as many tricks as they see fit on us unsuspecting humans. Not much has changed then in the last few millenia. Whether eggs would have been their trick of choice is debatable but perhaps I can offer a marzipan pumpkin as some protection.
P.S. You can find the cupcake recipe here and decorate as spookily as you see fit.
Those little pumpkins are adorable! I'm all for anything that makes this day more festive and sugary.

Well, even though I don't have any kids of my own, I will be pumping my co-workers kids full of sugar today!!

I was intending to make something for the little tykes but I settled on some dairy milk instead ;-) They look great!

Well I'm afraid no money was made on these today as I brought them home for the kids in the neighbourhood and they loved them, they were so excited - I had mini pizzas too!!
