Prepare the Snack Board

  2. In a bowl, combine icing sugar with cold water until smooth. Transfer to piping bag and set aside.
  3. Arrange mini peppers on a plate, pipe icing dots on each, and add sugar eyeballs. Chill for 10 minutes.
  4. Cut cantaloupe in half, scoop out seeds, and chop into cubes. Thread cantaloupe, black grapes, and marshmallows on skewers. Melt chocolate and decorate marshmallows.
  5. Use a ghost-shaped cutter on white bread to create sandwiches. Refrigerate to keep fresh.
  6. Peel bananas and cut into pieces. Melt chocolate and draw faces on each piece. Chill until set.
  7. Slice apples into 1 cm thick pieces. Spread peanut butter on one side, add mini marshmallows for teeth, and stack another apple slice on top.
  8. Assemble all chilled items on a large platter, adding optional plastic spiders for decoration.
