- Severed Fingers: Create “severed fingers” by using baby carrots or cocktail sausages with a sliced almond as the fingernail. Dip the tip in ketchup for a gory effect.
- Bloody Good Sausages: Cook sausages and serve them with ketchup or tomato sauce splattered on the plate to look like blood.
- Zombie Hand Meatloaf: Mold a meatloaf mixture into the shape of a hand and use sliced onion rings for fingernails. Add ketchup or barbecue sauce for a gory touch. (Or make Halloween feetloaf shaped like a foot!)

- Skeleton Bone Breadsticks: Bake breadsticks in the shape of bones and serve them with marinara sauce for “blood” dipping.
- Brain Jello: Create a brain-shaped gelatin mold using a brain-shaped mold like this or a bundt cake pan. Serve with raspberry or strawberry sauce for a realistic look.

- Maggot Mac and Cheese: Make a macabre mac-n-cheese and label it maggot mac and cheese.

- Coffin Cakes: Bake coffin-shaped cakes or brownies and decorate them with dark frosting and spooky decorations.
- Zombie Gummy Candy: Serve gummy candies shaped like brains, eyeballs, bone candies or chocolate body parts candy. I love this pack for zombie body parts!

Easy Zombie Recipe Ideas and Fun Zombie Party Foods
These are our favorite Halloween zombie party treats, creepy Halloween food, zombie movie watch party, or zombie foods for any monster party! These are zombie dishes that are ready in minutes — quick and easy zombie recipes!
Guts In Buns
We made it a Halloween snack just by calling it guts in a bun.
(You could also call it guts in skin, if you want to make totally disgusting food names.)
It’s actually spaghetti in a hot dog bun and makes a perfect Halloween party food because it’s easy to pick up and eat.
Slice the buns in half or even quarters to make them a more bite-sized appetizer for parties.

Add gummy worms and bone candies for a fun and creepy treat that looks like a graveyard.

Or, you can make zombie hotdog fingers by cutting fingernail indentations and finger wrinkles into hotdogs. Then, place them on a bed of ketchup “blood” and cheese in a hotdog bun.
Zombie Brain Cake For Halloween Zombies
Bake a brain-shaped cake (use a brain cake mold like this with your favorite cake mix).
Then, instead of icing, baste on strawberry or cherry glaze to make a gooey, bloody brain.
You can also use red molding chocolate to make brains or also to make it an intestine cake.
This is one of those zombie desserts that look like really gross foods!
EASY ZOMBIE PARTY TIP: Short on time? Grab a white cake from the store and strawberry glaze. Spoon the glaze over top to look like blood and then plunge a knife into the top for a gory cake effect.
Zombie Apple Faces
Honestly? We’ve never laughed so hard when making a kids’ recipe.
It was really fun to carve out apple zombies and then see how the faces turned out after cooking!
This is a fun food craft to do with kids for a zombie craft.
