Boos and Booze Halloween dinner party for adults, is our time to be kids again, only with delicious, theatrical and whimsical food made to wow.
Halloween Dinner Party For Us Adults!
Who said Halloween was just for kids!! Maybe it’s the kid in me, but I have so much fun with all the witchery, magic and potions of Halloween.
So why not take that fun into the kitchen, throw a fabulous dinner party and ignite the kid in all of your dinner guests!
Boos And Booze Halloween Dinner Party For Adults
When you’re a foodie, like me, you’re always looking for a way to celebrate a fun dinner party with friends.
While dressing up in costumes for Halloween is always lots of fun, a ‘Creepy’ gourmet dinner party can be the perfect way for adults to have all the fun for Halloween!
Booze Cocktails and The Moon
While there are a gazillion cocktails to choose from for an adult Halloween party, I wanted to create a new one!
Around Halloween time we often think of a harvest moon because Halloween falls at the end of harvest season.
Another moon that comes to mind is the Blue Moon or Super Moon.
Why the moon? Because creepy things happen when there is a full moon. Just ask any ER nurse or ambulance affiliate.
Full moons cause a rise in water levels and since we are made up mostly of water, it causes a stir in our energy.
More moms go into labor on the night of a full moon than any other time.
Signature Halloween Cocktail
Blue Moon Cocktail became my cocktail creation to celebrate this fun and very adult Halloween party!
It’s a simple cocktail of vodka, coconut milk and Blue Curacao, but it is not only amazingly delicious but it has a color presentation you won’t soon forget!
Creepy Fish-Tail Appetizers
Cashew Cheese & Anchovy Tarts are a fun appetizer that also happens to be perfect for those non-dairy, waist-conscious guests.
Crunch tart shells, creamy cashew cheese and a little salty zing from the tail of an anchovy, makes this appetizer not only healthy and delicious but also lots of fun to make and eat.
Squid Ink Pasta
Squid Ink Pasta & Squid makes for the perfect creepy entree to serve dinner guests.
Creepy tentacles, wormy looking black pasta and lots of green things popping out.
But, once your guests get over the giggles of how fun this dish looks, they will be asking for seconds when they taste the complex flavors and tender delicacy of the squid, cooked to perfection!
Pumpkin Ganache and Spice Cake
I promise, you will never have an Autumn dessert as decadent, gourmet or delicious as this dessert I created for our Halloween Adult Dinner Party!
This grand Autumn dessert, Pumpkin Ganache & Spice Cake has 3 components that each taste amazing alone.
But when assembled together, your taste buds are certain to be doing a happy dance; creamy textured pumpkin ganache, exotic spiced cake, topped with cardamom foam.
The cake is made with rye flour, ginger, molasses and Guinness.
The homemade pumpkin spice, pumpkin ganache is so delicious you will be lucky you don’t eat it all before getting it onto the cake.
Cardamom scented cream was going to go into my ice cream maker but on a whim, I purchased a CO2 canister and made my own velvety whipped cream, my new favorite kitchen toy.

I believe the table... that place that draws people to gather, is the most powerful symbol of togetherness. All that happens before the table is set, the planning, the gathering, the preparing, are all an intricate part of the dance that create the mood of celebration to share with friends and loved ones.
