  I am after a pastry cutter the size of a slice of bread in the shape of a bat, this is because my friend is making his home made pate and I thought it would be a good idea to have some batty pate on toast for my Halloween dinner party. Is there anything available.

  Hellfire dip !!! not fiery at all. Just made it and I think I will have to add some fresh chilli to liven it up!

  I made the "slime sludge" but thought it was a little bland and watery... I then found Nigella Lawson's avocado and green pea hummous instead, and success! Avocado, sweet canned peas, lime juice and fresh mint - tasted great and had the Halloween look!

  The hellfire dip is not fiery but very tasty. I substituted cream cheese and added coriander seeds. The poppy seeds didn't stick at all on the creepy bites... Will have to try sesame seeds next time.

  Made the freaky fingers last night. Added red food colouring to icing sugar to coat the nails properly. Spooky looking and tastey at the same time :)

  The Hellfire Dip indeed needs chili added if you want hot and spicy - otherwise is a very simple recipe to follow with good, if a bit bland for my taste, results.
