Gather a few ingredients and you are all set.  Little effort with maximum affect- win/win for everyone! I love pistachio flavored things – this dip has a different taste than your average dip.  I found the edible eyes (Wilton brand) at Joann’s but you can get them here too.

  1. This looks like a fun treat that I know my kids will eat. And I’m glad it’s not a scary/spooky thing either – I prefer the cute side of Halloween too :)

    Totally off subject, but would you mind sharing the fonts you used for the words Monster fruit dip in the first picture? I really like those……

    • Hi Shannon- I got the eyes at Joann’s. But I saw them at Michaels the other day. I’ve added them to so many things lately!
