Scary Apples 1, MattBites

I don’t typically go for recipes that use food-coloring… there’s something a bit icky about such artificial alterations.  But since tomorrow’s Halloween, a bit of icky-ness is allowed, and these “scary apples” (from MattBites) are way too impressive to pass up.  Says blogger Matt:

Black glossy cinnamon-scented candied glass enveloped small apples, twigs became their handles, and a few shockingly red candied apples only made their black counterparts more ominous. It was halloween on a silpat, a spooky forest that completed my cocktail.

I love this dark & mysterious tone for Halloween… a bit like Snow White’s poisonous apple which, when bitten, will cause “the victim’s eyes to close forever in the Sleeping Death…”

Get the spooky recipe.
