Easy Halloween Snack Workbench Idea

The halloween snack workbench has wilt my favorite party contribution. Whether it’s a true charcuterie board, a savory snack platter, or a exhibit of sweet treats, I love that they can squint impressive without needing a lot of time…or skills in the kitchen. Let’s be honest, Bobby is the melt and the baker. I just like to decorate.

I’ve made many a Halloween snack workbench — they’re my favorite! — and this pumpkin snack workbench is particularly easy considering it just requires a round charcuterie workbench and verisimilitude sorted treats. Homemade or store bought doesn’t matter; I like to do a little mix and match. Here’s how to hoke your Halloween snack workbench to squint like a jack-o-lantern pumpkin:

How to build a Pumpkin Snack Board

Use a round charcuterie workbench as your base

Start with the jack-o-lantern’s vision and mouth

Start towers your Halloween pumpkin snack workbench with the jack-o-lantern’s vision and mouth. I used homemade sugar cookies (I use Emma’s sugar cookie recipe!) that I cut into the shape of bats and cats, with HomeGoods cookie cutters. Get creative: you can make these out of any treats you like!

Form the nose

I used chocolate covered sunflower seeds and jordan almonds. Much like the board, decor, and tablecloth — these were found at HomeGoods!

Add a border

Adding a verge of pumpkin candies to your Halloween snack workbench will alimony the rest of the filler in place. Think of this as making an outline for a coloring book!

Start filling in the jack-o-lantern’s squatter with orange hued treats

When filling in the spaces, start with the focal points or any larger treats you want to add. For me, that was these pumpkin cookies. I made them little “cheeks”. Anywhere else, they may have been distracted. Then, I widow some orange jordan almonds to the space unelevated the nose.

Keep filling!

Remember, this is like coloring inside the lines! Once the outline of your Halloween snack workbench is washed-up and the wiring is set, just fill in the spaces with orange colored candies and treats. Use bulkier pieces in larger spaces, and fill smaller voids with equally tiny treats.

Don’t forget the stem!

Finish your pumpkin snack workbench with gummy worms for the stem. You can moreover use pretzels, graham crackers, or any candies you want. Just have fun and don’t overthink it!
