Recipe Help
- → How should I arrange the different candies?
Place apple-flavored gummies, jelly beans, and hard candies in distinct sections on a large platter. Arrange poison-themed candies like licorice and grape gummies separately for contrast, with decorative eyeballs and red shards scattered for effect.
- → Can I use other candies besides the ones listed?
Yes, feel free to substitute with other fruit-flavored or colored candies to match your event’s theme or personal preference.
- → Is there a way to make the platter more dramatic?
Using dry ice under the serving platter creates a misty, spooky atmosphere. Be sure to handle dry ice safely and keep it separate from the candies.
- → How long can the candy platter be stored?
Cover and store in a cool, dry place if not serving immediately, but it’s best enjoyed fresh to maintain texture and appearance.
- → Are there allergen considerations with these candies?
Check labels carefully as some candies may contain wheat, gelatin, nuts, soy, or milk. Always verify allergens before serving.
