MY COLD HAS TURNED INTO FLU - can anyone else please test this delicious-sounding recipe? If not, I will hope to be well enough to do so before the Tuesday deadline. Thanks, everyone.

pumpkin marzipan please!! so darling!!
over 2 years ago Lizthechef
I can't wait to see what you do with this!
over 2 years ago Sagegreen
Thanks, AppleAnnie for testing these. If you don't have pumpkin jam handy, you could use a pure peach or apricot (not chunky). You want the marzipan to remain light in color. Hope you like these!

I"ll try the graveyard cupcakes please.
over 2 years ago Heena
I hope you enjoy them as much as I'm going to enjoy those beautiful caramels.
over 2 years ago cheese1227
I loved these since I first saw them on your blog for the food blogger challenge and voted for you then! I have to make dinner for a family going through some trying times and I am sure the little ones will love these.
over 2 years ago Heena
It warms my heart that you chose these to make. I'm sure they'll love your kind gesture.
P.S. The owls are a big hit with kids and adults alike, and you can make them with the same ingredients + Oreos/M&M's.
