These deliciously spooky spider rice cakes are the perfect fun and scary treat for your little one’s Halloween party, and they’re really easy to make.
This Halloween recipe is one of our favourites and is easy to make, so the kids can get involved too.
Devised by the Organix team, they’re rice cakes and fresh fruit, so they’re a junk free Halloween treat for children aged 7 months and up. This recipe makes three spiders and one spider’s web.
Here’s how to make this fun Halloween recipe:
Ingredients
- 3 Organix raspberry and blueberry rice cakes
- 4 blackberries
- 3 black grapes
Instructions
Crush two blackberries in a small bowl with the back of a fork, cut the other two blackberries in half. Use a clean paintbrush to paint a spider’s web with the juice on a white plate. Older children will love to help!
Place three rice cakes on to the web, then add a half blackberry spider body on top of each rice cake.
Slice each grape in half from top to bottom, then slice each half into four thin spider legs.
Add the legs to your spiders, then eat them up before they scurry away!
