Halloween Popcorn Hand Party Favor

Halloween Popcorn Hand Party Favor

Halloween Popcorn Hand Party Favor





Ingredients:

  • Clear plastic gloves (food service type)
  • Microwave popcorn
  • Corn Candy
  • Spider rings
  • Colorful yarn

Directions:

Open glove and put a piece of corn candy into the tip of each finger. These are the "fingernails". Fill the gloves with cooked and cooled popcorn. Tie with colorful yarn and put spider ring on one finger.

These favors are ALWAYS a hit with children and adults too. They get a kick out of receiving the favor because of the "novelty" of the use of the glove.

You can buy a package of 100 of these gloves at the Dollar Tree. I apologize for not having the candy corn and spider ring on the one I did hurriedly today to give you the idea of the finished product. The most difficult part is getting the popcorn down into the finger parts, but well worth the reaction of those who receive them!!

Please, Please, Please, be sure to make sure the gloves do not contain any powders or chemicals that most "rubber" gloves have. Many plastics, even from the grocery store, are NOT food safe. For example, the clear produce bags are not safe if turned inside out. The outside of the bag has stuff on it that is toxic. Just be safe.

Editor's Note: She recommends plastic food handling gloves which should be safe to use on food. Using other types of gloves would not be recommended.

I sometimes use "Fiddle Faddle" or "Cracker Jack" mixed in with the regular popcorn for that "rotting zombie" look. Dark roasted pecan or walnut halves work well as infected fingernails. Caramels cut into quarters and rolled in warm toasted coconut is creepy looking enough to be called hairy warts. Adding toasted nuts and shaped mallow creme candies inside the palm is the hidden treat. These are always a hit!
