Hello Nerdie Foodies! This week we have been celebrating all things Disney! October 16th is the anniversary of the creation of Disney thanks to Mr. Walt and his brother Roy. But since we are doing Halloween, let’s celebrate in style where you can have your very own Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween party! Let’s go!
Evil Queens
What Evil Queen is without her stash of poison apples? If you’ve run out or are wanting to try a new recipe, Nate from Wanna Bite shares with us his version. Check out the recipe for these glamourous poison apples here!

Maleficent
Nerdy Nummies creative mind, Ro, show us how to make our very own Maleficent candy apples, just like the ones found at Disneyland! Check out the video below!
If you’re not into candy apples, fear not! These two adorable sisters, Charli and Ash, from Charli’s Crafty Kitchen show us how to make Maleficent cupcakes! Definitely a kid-friendly cupcake decorating party. Check out the video below!
And of course, for all you adults out there whom are in need of a drink after all the sugary treats? Maren Swanson, from Makin’ it with Maren, shows us how to make a Maleficent drink! For a kid-friendly version, you can leave out the alcohol and just keep the coconut juice, blueberry preserves, and the orange juice. You might just have to add more juice to make up for the volume in place of the alcohol. Check out the recipe below!
The Nightmare Before Christmas
Nothing says Halloween quite like Jack Skellington. Disney Family shows us how to decorate our chocolate cupcakes to look like Jack Skellington himself! Check out the how-to here!
