Halloween is just around the corner and we tried five different cakes to see if they deserve a spot at your spooky party
Halloween is nearly upon us, and for those planning a spooky party to mark the occasion thoughts will be turning towards what to serve your guests. A buffet is always the easier route to go, taking the fear out of having to sit down and plan a menu.
M&S 9 Halloween Mini Cupcakes - £5 Edward Barnes: The bat looked cute and the chocolate and icing had a nice consistency. However there was definitely a bit of a funny aftertaste. 2.5/5 Steve Graves: I'm always suspicious of spooky treats. Too often they're simply bland cakes and chocs rebranded, with nothing especially scary going on. However the M&S ghost cupcake might have changed my mind. More cute than terrifying, the design was eye-catching, while the cupcake icing wasn't overdone.
Cheryl Mullin: Having been a bit disappointed with M&S's festive version of the mini-roll Colin's last year, I was a bit concerned the 'bones' along the spine would be the same hard candy as the Christmas sprinkles. However, I couldn't have been more wrong. They were a creamy, white chocolate that enhanced the flavour of the milk chocolate coating.
Gary Stewart: It was exactly the same as a French Fancy except it was Halloween Orange with dark brown icing stripes - just like my nan used to give us kids except orange. 5/5
