Simple Fake Blood
Clear Corn Syrup
Red Food Coloring
Milk - Optional

However much fake blood is how much corn syrup you'll need. Pour it into a bowl and mix in some red food coloring. Add some blue if you like. Adding a small amount of milk will make the blood appear darker and thicker.


Realistic Recipe
2/3 c. Corn Syrup
1/3 c. Warm Water
5 Tbsp Corn Starch
4 tsp red food coloring
1 Tbsp Powdered Cocoa
2 drops of green or yellow food coloring

Mix the corn starch with the water in a large mixing bowl. Stir in the corn syrup. Add the food coloring slowly, checking for color.


Palmolive Imitation Blood
A reader writes in: You can also make fake blood with Palmolive dish soap, (it doesn't matter how much you put in) it depends on how much blood you want! Add red berry powered Kool-Aid!

Frozen Hand Recipe
1 rubber glove with no lining
1 qt. water
Food coloring -- This can match the color of your punch, or stick out like a sore thumb (Pun intended)
1 bread twist or rubber band

Add the food coloring to the water, mix, and pour into the glove. Tie it off tightly with the twisty or rubber band. Place on a flat surface (that will catch any drainage) and freeze the glove until it's solid. Remove the glove and place in the punch before serving.

Homemade Carmel Apples
Recipe Ingredients
8 medium-sized apples
2 (14 oz.) pkgs. caramels (try chocolate!)
1/4 c. water

Wash and dry the apples. Insert Popsicle sticks into the stem of each apple. Set aside.

Unwrap the caramels and add them with the water in a medium sized saucepan. Heat on low while stirring until the caramel is completely melted.

Dip each apple into the caramel until the apple is completely covered, allowing the excess caramel to drip off. Scrape bottom if necessary. Place apples onto greased waxed paper and let them sit for about 15 minutes or until caramel is completely set. Store in the refrigerator.
