Strawberry Monsters are a fun and healthy Halloween treat made with fresh strawberries, candy eyes, and fondant. They’re perfect for kids’ parties, lunchbox surprises, or spooky snack platters.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 12 ripe strawberries
  • 2 ounces white fondant (about 50g)
  • Black food coloring gel (or store-bought black fondant)
  • 1/3 cup powdered icing sugar
  • 1 tube white decorating/writing icing
  • 12 candy eyes

Instructions

  1. Wash and dry the strawberries thoroughly. Cut off the tops so they stand upright with the pointed end facing up.
  2. Divide the white fondant in half. Knead black food coloring into one half until it turns evenly black.
  3. Lightly dust your work surface with powdered sugar. Roll out the black and white fondant separately.
  4. Cut small oval shapes from the black fondant to create the monster mouths.
  5. Cut small triangle shapes from the white fondant to make teeth.
  6. Use a little water to attach the teeth to the black fondant mouths.
  7. Attach the completed mouths to the strawberries using decorating icing.
  8. Place candy eyes above the mouth and secure them with more decorating icing.
  9. Let the assembled strawberry monsters set before serving.

Notes

  • Choose large, ripe strawberries for easier decorating and better presentation.
  • Use melted chocolate or a dab of water as an alternative adhesive if decorating icing isn’t available.
  • Store in the fridge in a single layer and serve within 24 hours.
  • Avoid freezing as it ruins the texture of the strawberries and fondant.
  • Let kids create their own monster expressions for a fun activity.
