Halloween Fun
Our neighborhood really gets into Halloween, at many houses, the owners will welcome neighbors with a drink while their kids trick-or-treat. These Halloween pumpkin jello shots are a great way to make a street full (or office full) of friends this Halloween.
The jello shots look adorable centered in the pumpkin rind. Molded in an ice cube tray and set streaming out of a jack-o-lantern is another fun way to make the spooky treat look amazing. Just be sure if there are kids around the jello shots are aptly labeled. Safety first – cute jello shots second.

Pumpkins aren’t just for carving
I love repurposing pumpkins and giving them a new lease on life as cake holders, serving bowls, and lanterns. Using the rind to serve this tasty treat is my favorite idea yet. Let’s clink our Halloween jello shots in honor of the awesomeness of pumpkins.
