Macaroni and Ghosts
I made some of that Amy's white cheddar and shells pasta, then took a hard boiled egg that had been peeled and nicked the bottom off with a knife. Next I put the egg in the pasta cut side down, and used a toothpick to paint on a ghost face with some black food colouring gel (I used Wilton's) I have seen various colouring on food with toothpicks in the past, and this seemed like a good way to add something special to Halloween lunch. As a plus, the black gel started to leak a little green colour around the edges and looked extra cool.
In case you are wondering, the black flecks are pepper... I got enthused and almost ate my portion of lunch before taking the picture. As a side note, you may want to give the egg a minute to dry before handing it to a starving toddler who thinks it is also cute, as my son had 'eye' prints on his fingers, haha.
