Yesterday I shared the yummy Candy Corn Cake Pop Cupcakes that I made… Well if you take away the cupcakes and add a stick, you have Candy Corn Cake Pops… Certainly a sweet but not too spooky treat. The adorable orange and white paper straws that I use are from Sweets & Treats Boutique. LOVE their straws, they are extremely strong (some others I’ve used in the past were to thin to really support cake pops). Head over to this {Read More}
McCormick recently asked me to be a part of their Spooky Squad, and share some of their (and my) fun Halloween ideas with my readers, as well as host a giveaway full of great Halloween baking goodies. McCormick has a number of fun Halloween recipes up on their website and on their Monster Mash Pinterest board. I decided to make their Candy Corn Cupcakes and put my own spin on them by topping them with Candy Corn Cake Pops. You {Read More}

This week I will be sharing fun ways that I’ve used the kit that Kraft {Read More}
I’ve written before about the fun tradition of BOO-ing your friends and neighbors. My daughter loves booing her friends, and this mom may have secretly booed her myself just to make sure she was on the receiving end of some boo-treats – let’s hope she doesn’t read this post!. You can head over to my previous post for some ideas, tips and links to free printables, but here are a few new free printables for you to use. These were {Read More}
I love holidays, and Halloween ranks pretty high up on my list. I love baking for holidays. Decorating for holidays. Planning for holidays. Shopping for holidays. I always love pulling out our Halloween storage totes and taking a look at what we used to decorate with last year. I always find something that I totally forgot about and am excited to rediscover. It’s kind of like that with recipes as well. After a while my memory of what {Read More}

It appears that two of the most popular/pinned/talked about Halloween treats this year are the Candy Corn M&M’s and the Candy Corn Oreos. I was lucky to find both last week (and even picked some up for my Fun Fall Flavors Giveaway – go enter!). I figured why not combine these sweet treats and throw in some actual candy corn for good measure, because I’m pretty sure candy corn makes everything taste even better. The result – White Chocolate Candy {Read More}
One of the most popular giveaways I’ve had here on Love From The Oven was the Fun Fall Flavors Giveaway I did last year. I bought fun fall stuff and gave it away, what’s not to like about that? So let’s do it again this year. I’m all about an excuse to shop for anything Halloween related. I love, love, LOVE fall (hey, the end of summer in Arizona is a very good thing, especially since summer is 11.5 months {Read More}
This weekend we will be celebrating my Grandfather’s 90th Birthday and I took on the task of creating the desserts for the event. I wanted to try some new recipes, and work with some flavors that made me think of fall (I’m kind of desperate for fall right now). I whipped up three kinds of cupcakes, Pecan Pie Cupcakes, Snickerdoodle Cupcakes & Pumpkin Pie Cupcakes. Everyone in my house had a different favorite, my husband liked the Pecan Pie ones, {Read More}
Thankfully Halloween is coming up, because the cute little cakesicles I made are the perfect shape for making little headstones. You can whip up a whole cupcake graveyard, and they would be darling on a cake as well. Ah, so many fun ways to use these when whipping up spooky sweets and treats for Halloween. They would be fabulous outside a haunted gingerbread house. I can’t have Halloween without a dose of Jack Skellington. Cue the music… “this is Halloween, {Read More}
For my birthday last month, my mom picked me up a Cakesicle Maker… And you can make cute things with it. Things like this… And like this… And even like this… It’s pretty simple to use, you can use a regular cake mix, no modifications needed. You put one tablespoon of cake batter into each of the little wells and bake for about two minutes. Now I say “about” two minutes, because the temperature was a bit up and down. {Read More}
