1 Monster, 2 Monster, 3 Monster, 4 these little monsters are something I adore! We wanted to up our candy apple game this year and decided on creating the most fun and whimsical candy apples I’ve ever seen.
Monster candy apples that are hilarious and fun! The kids will think they are the best thing to have happened all season long.
We’ve done a number of candy apple versions in the past, likes these hardshell apples and this caramel apple cake, but none as fun as these!
These cute little creatures are the perfect treat for your big halloween party! Each with their own little personality and flair. Make them for school, for home, or just for a fun kick off to the season of monsters and ghouls.
