Spooktacular Brunch and Dessert Party

This year for Halloween we had a Spooktacular Brunch and Dessert Party for the office. With the help of a co-worker, we got to planning and shopping! Our manager let us have free reign and he really wanted us to get into it! He even went as far as telling us to cut down the budget by getting real-life spiders and cobwebs from outside…but we weren’t going THAT route! Many people signed up for the lunch and dessert party and we were excited to see what concoctions people would come up with! 

Along with carving pumpkins, I spent the night before 
making chocolates for the admin's goodie bags!
 The girls goodie bags consisted of a "creepy critter" some chocolate eyeballs, 
gummy body parts and my chocolate.

Since we weren't aloud to dress in costume, I had made a hair clip especially for Halloween :)

 Pumpkin shaped baked brie!


Bloody cream cheese dip--yummy!


My pumpkin that I carved with the company logo.


 Some of the food...and yes that is a vulture by the chicken :)


Our other door greeter :)


Time for dessert!


We had mummy cupcakes, dirt pudding and chocolate-peanut butter eyeballs!


Leslie's creations :)

 
The day of was a little hectic with setting up and prepping but it turned out to be a great success! The food was yummy, the décor was creepy and the dessert was delish! The room was even complete with scary music, dim lights and the life-sized talking mannequins, which was the PERFECT touch!

Right around the corner…a Thanksgiving lunch!! We’re looking forward to some turkey and yummy sides!
