I have never been into super scary and bloody Halloween. Even though my older kids keep pushing for skeletons and tombstones, I much prefer adorable ghosts and witches.

For example, we made this sweet little Halloween terrarium last year and this fun Halloween garland from upcycled egg cartons a little while back.

That’s why these sweet little fondant covered ghost mini-muffins are perfect! They so simple to make – you can use your favourite mini-muffin recipe, or even store-bought mini muffins for a no bake option. They’re a fun way to celebrate Halloween without all the gore!

How to Make Easy Fondant Ghost Mini Muffins

  1. Roll your fondant out into a thin layer. Lay down some powdered sugar on the counter before you roll the fondant to keep it front sticking.
