4. Spider Web Halloween Cupcakes
White cotton candy looks an awful lot like spider webs, making it the perfect topper for Halloween cupcakes. Since cotton candy sticks to itself, you can literally build a web right on top of the cupcake. Add a plastic spider to complete the look, or create an edible spider out of chocolate on waxed paper to place on the web.

They look an awful lot like Mickey and Minnie’s Halloween Time costumes which they debut at Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party.

8. Graham Cracker Frankenstein Cupcake
Genius! That’s what we have to say about these graham cracker Frankenstein cupcakes. Use frosting and cut marshmallows to decorate a graham cracker square like Frankenstein. Use a graham cracker stick with Frankenstein’s bolts, and situate the adorable topper on top of the Halloween cupcake, using frosting.
9. Slimy Cupcakes
Neon green gel icing and candy eyeballs make these slimy cupcakes ideal for Halloween. You might gross out your guests, but isn’t that what Halloween parties are for?
10. Monster Eye Cupcakes
Kick off the Halloween season by baking these monster eye cupcakes with your kids. They are easy enough for the kids to help with and make a great Halloween classroom treat.

11. Broomstick Cupcake Toppers
Your best witches will love these witch-inspired Halloween cupcakes featuring adorable broomstick cupcake toppers. You can DIY your own using materials you may already have around your home.

12. Cauldron Cupcakes

14. Itty-Bitty Bat Cupcakes
Bite-size itty-bitty bat cupcakes are about to swoop into your Halloween dessert dreams. These cute bats are made from mini cupcakes and cookie wings. To create the bat wings, use a moon cookie cutter. The bat’s adorable face is made using miniature white heart sprinkles (fangs), black candy-coated sunflower seeds (ears), black jimmies (eyebrows), and candy eyes.
15. Oreo Spider Cupcakes
There are probably as many variations of spiders as there are spider cupcakes, but we just couldn’t pass up sharing this tutorial for Oreo spider cupcakes! I mean, how cute are those licorice legs that drape over the sides of the cupcake? To create this adorable version for your Halloween treat display, you’ll need to whip up a batch of red velvet cupcakes for starters. Next, you’ll dip Oreos in chocolate almond bark and sprinkle the tops with chocolate jimmies. Add a big dollop of electric green frosting to the top of your cupcake, and perch the Oreo on top to act as the spider’s body. Use a little of the leftover melted chocolate to attach a pair of candy eyes and the licorice lace legs.
