Did you know that cupcakes are enjoyed more at Halloween than any other time of the year?  We didn’t either…  Until we read it in a weekly grocery store flyer.  But that fantastic tidbit is a great segue into today’s Halloween Treats post.  This year, Wal-Mart is offering up some creepy cupcakes featuring the Disney Villains.  Now, while Wal-Mart’s bakery has never been our prime destination for fresh-out-of-the-oven goodies, we just couldn’t resist this baker’s dozen featuring the Mistresses of Mayhem.  What do you think of them?  And, more importantly, what other cool Halloween cupcakes have you spotted this season?

R.M.Palmer has long been the king of Double Crisp Chocolate and other nifty candy novelties for Halloween.  But, this year, they have debuted a creepy new addition to their spooktacular line-up of tricky treats:  The Double Crisp Spooky Pop.  The Spooky Pops are made of the crispy chocolate everyone has grown to love.  They come in three designs: Jack-O’-Lanterns, Vampires and Ghosts.  They are available at select drug stores and other retail chains.  Let us know where you find them!

Halloween Treats: 7 Up, Sunkist, A&W Root Beer Halloween Soda Cans

Soda companies and Halloween go back a long way…  7-Eleven Halloween cups, Gas Station Monster Glasses, Pepsi Universal Monsters…  In recent years, pop makers have found a new niche in the Halloween market – the mini soda can.  And while they have been producing a variety of cool designs for Trick-or-Treaters for the past few years, we felt that this year’s designs rocked the haunted house.

This year, Dracula, Frankenstein, and the Werewolf are the stars of the 7 Up (Dr. Pepper) Company’s Halloween Cans.  Frankenstein adorns the green 7 Up cans, while Dracula makes a splash on the Sunkist cans, and the Werewolf is having a howling-good time on the A&W Root Beer cans.

So whether you hand out these mini-sodas to Treaters, serve them up at parties, or indulge in their spooky goodness all by yourself, you may want to take a look at the spooktacular designs this year.  We found these ones at Target.  What other Halloween treats have you stumbled upon this year?
