If you are a fan of America’s Got Talent, you saw Pumpkin Man perform a few seasons ago. AGT is one of my family’s favorite shows (we love Simon Cowell and all of the judges!), so we never miss an episode. Dancing Pumpkin Man (whose real name is Matt Geiler) made his appearance in his black unitard in season 12 and got eliminated during the Judge Cuts. My kids think these treats look like his pumpkin mask, so although we were bummed his musical improv didn’t take him further, we remember him every year with these.
These Twinkie Jack O Lantern cakes are a really fun activity for you to share with the kids. Give everyone a different Halloween decorating station and let everyone decorate their own Halloween Twinkie face!
If you can’t make it to the pumpkin patch this season, you can still play some epic games and create some epic food. Start with these fun Halloween treats!
