" Candy corn is great, but by the time the 31st rolls around, the typical Halloween guilty pleasure can get a little boring. Mix things up with these Halloween treats from chocolate and candy expert Beth Kimmerle! Jack-O-Lantern Cupcakes You will need: (12) 2&amp;quot; cupcakes Orange frosting Scissors Craft knife Hubba Bubba Bubble Tape Tangy Tropical Hubba Bubba Bubble Max Island Punch (1) piece Eclipse gum for teeth (per cupcake) (2) pieces Life Savers Gummies for eyes (per cupcake) (2) Chocolate chips (per cupcake) What to do: Bake the cupcakes according to the instructions on the box; let them cool completely. Generously cover each cupcake with bright orange frosting. Cut the Bubble Tape gum into three 1/3&amp;quot; strips. Drape each strip along the cupcake, starting at bottom, running the tape across the top to create pumpkin &amp;quot;ridges.&amp;quot; Once the strips are positioned where you want them, secure each piece by pressing lightly into the frosting. Use pieces of Hubba Bubba Max gum (it molds like clay but is a little stickier!) to form a pumpkin stem and mouth. Gently place these molded gum features on the cupcake to start the pumpkin &amp;quot;face.&amp;quot; With the craft knife, carefully cut the gum into pieces and place the cut gum &amp;quot;teeth&amp;quot; on the molded gum mouth. To finish, insert a chocolate chip into the middle of the Life Savers candy and place them on the cake to complete the eyes.  Spooky Edible Eyeballs You will need: (12) small white powdered sugar doughnuts (1) tube red icing (1) 7 oz. bag Life Savers Gummies (1) bag chocolate chips What to do: Place doughnuts on a platter and cover the center holes with a thin layer of red icing (diameter should be slightly larger than the Life Saver candy). Place the Life Saver candy on top of the red icing circle; push gently to secure in place. Top the Life Saver candy with a chocolate chip. Make the eyeball scary by drawing lines from the center of the doughnut to the outer edge with red icing. Finish the treat by poking each doughnut with a lollipop stick and arranging them in a bowl of candy corn or gummies to make a freaky yet tasty centerpiece.  Frankenstein Pops You will need: Green Make &amp;#039;n Mold Candy Wafers 1 tube black frosting Large marshmallows 10&amp;quot; lollipop sticks Small pieces cut Lifesavers Gummies Skittles Several toothpicks or small decorating bottles Wax paper Baking sheet What to do: Melt green candy wafers according to package directions. Place 2 marshmallows on a 10&amp;quot; lollipop stick and dip into melted green wafers and gently shake off excess coating. Carefully place two yellow Skittles on upper part of top marshmallow for &amp;quot;eyes.&amp;quot; Chill 5 minutes on wax paper lined baking sheet. Dip top third of marshmallow &amp;quot;head&amp;quot; into black frosting to make &amp;quot;hair.&amp;quot; Using a toothpick, create small strands of hair down forehead. Using a toothpick, poke two small holes in each side of &amp;quot;head.&amp;quot; Make sure they are large enough to place small pieces of cut Life Savers gummies for Frankenstein&amp;#039;s bolts. Finally using remaining frosting wafers and toothpick work on details: draw small eyeballs on Skittles, darken gummi &amp;quot;bolts,&amp;quot; make a scary mouth and draw a small scar on cheek.
