Ingrediants
For 6 ghosts
- 300 g (3 medium) of banana
- 200 g of vegetable whipped cream
- 30 g of coconut flour
- 1 tablespoon of chocolate coffee beans
For snakes
- 300 g of grapes
- 30 g of powdered sugar
- 1-2 teaspoons of water
- 1 tablespoon of chocolate chips
For 6 fruit pumpkins
- 50 g of celery
- 300 g (6 medium) of mandarins
Materials Needed
- Electric hand mixer
- Chopping board
- Sticks
- Croissant in paper or sac à poche
Preparation
- PREPARATION OF GHOST BANANAS
Whip the cream with the electric whisk until the snow is firm. Peel the bananas and cut them in half. Skewer half a banana onto a skewer stick, then roll it in the whipped cream. Sprinkle it with grated coconut and decorate it with chocolate confetti (or with coffee beans or chocolate chips) to form the eyes and mouth of the ghost. Proceed in the same way with the other bananas. Stick the sticks on a support or on half a fruit (e.g. apple, pineapple, etc.).
- PREPARATION OF FRUIT PUMPKINS
Peel the mandarins, taking care not to break or open the segments. Cut the celery into logs, leaving a few leaves as desired. Insert a celery stalk in the center of the peeled mandarin. The fruit pumpkins are ready.
- PREPARATION OF SNAKES
Wash the grapes and remove the berries, taking care not to break them. Gently dry them and polish them with a soft cloth. Skewer the berries, one by one, into a skewer stick. Make the water glaze by mixing the icing sugar with a few drops of water: you will need to obtain a thick consistency. Insert the icing into a croissant, then make two dots on a grape for each stick. Then place two drops of chocolate on top of the icing to get the "eyes" of the Halloween snakes.
The extra idea
Those who wish can enrich the fruit range by preparing ghost pears. To prepare them, simply peel the pears and make the eyes with cloves. Boil the pears for 10-15 minutes in cinnamon-flavored apple juice. Then, let the apple juice dry on a high flame and enrich with one or two tablespoons of strawberry syrup (to create the "blood" effect). The pears can then be served on individual saucers, accompanied with the blood-colored syrup.- Serve all the Halloween fruit on a platter.
