Halloween milshake
To get into the “Halloween” spirit and I’ve had fun coming up with some new gruesome recipes.
Freakshakes were one of 2016’s biggest food trends and have continued to be a hit. These over the top milkshakes seem to keep getting bigger and better as they get topped with all sorts of baked goods, sweets and sauces. It is definitely a case of go big or go home.
I thought I’d make these giant milkshakes even more freaky by giving them a bit of a Halloween twist.
How to make a Halloween freakshake
Strawberry sauce was the perfect substitute for blood, white chocolate “stitches” on the glass and the doughnut and a syringe in the side adds to the gruesome look! It had to be a doughnut on top – the jam or custard oozing out looks just like blood and pus!
I know, that sounded pretty grim and I don’t want to put you off your dinner but these are so over the top that both kids and grown ups will love them. I promise.
If you want to make your Halloween Freakshake extra special by making your own jam or custard filled doughnuts you can.

Over the last couple of years I’ve updated my Spooky Rocky Road which I now LOVE as the skulls and bones jutting out of each piece make it look like someone has been buried alive. I also loved making my Terrifying Teacake Ghosts with hidden bloody centre and the jet black Halloween Pinata Cake!
