Turn a plain piece of cheese into an amazingly festive Halloween appetizer! This Laughing Cow Candy Corn Cheese is so simple but is the perfect addition to any Halloween party!
My goal this Halloween is to simplify. I’m going to try my best to reduce the amount I have to do for our party by keeping our decorations uncomplicated. We’ll see if I can stick to this plan. I’m also going to do my best to come up with at least a handful of really easy edible crafts that would be fun to serve at parties or just as a snack. You know me, simple isn’t my thing, but I’m determined to give it a try.
My first Halloween post is just such a treat. Wedges of Laughing Cow cheese are painted with yellow and orange food coloring to look like candy corn. It can’t get much simpler than that!
If you are opposed to using the normal store bought food coloring, there are several natural food colors on the market which will work great as well.
Laughing Cow Candy Corn Cheese Wedges
You’ll Need:
Laughing Cow Cheese Wedges
Yellow and Orange Food Coloring
Food use only paint brushes
Instructions:
Unwrap Laughing Cow Cheese Wedges.
Paint a stripe using yellow food coloring at the wide end of the cheese wedge.
Paint a wider orange stripe above the yellow stripe, leaving the tip white.
Allow the food coloring to dry.
Serve.
I have to admit I do love a blog post that is this easy to compose.

Thank you Ashlee:)

Thanks, Jill:)
I'm not normally into food colors but hello, that is amazing!!! I always need salty ideas for Halloween parties to compliment all that sweet and this is just perfect. Great idea! Pinned it too 😉
Thanks for the pin, Melissa:) I do strive to create savory edible crafts, because we can't just have sweets at our parties. I find it more challenging to come up with snacks, but it's fun:)
I love this cute idea!! ..even more so as it's simple and easy!
It's so funny that it's such a challenge for me to keep something simple, but I'm determined to make more!
Very clever! Kids will love it and Mom won't have to feel guilty.

I can never get the candy corn theme out of my mind this time of year. DANG CUTE IDEA!!!
I know, me either. As I was brainstorming ideas the other day, I kept returning to candy corn themes.
This is one of my favorite cheeses to snack on. Love this idea!
Me too. We always have them in our refrigerator.

Yes, even if you wanted less food color, you could eliminate painting the sides of the cheese.
That's really cute! My kids love candy corn…I wonder if I could trick them with these!
You could try:)
