Your kids will love assembling these spiders. They’re great for garnishing party trays, and would make a wonderful centerpiece on a chocolate layer cake.

Ingredients:

  • Black jumbo gumdrops
  • Thin black licorice
  • Red hot candies

Preparation:

Using a toothpick, poke holes in the gumdrops. Insert thin licorice, cut to desired leg length. Press red hots into the gumdrops for eyes. Store in tightly covered containers.
