Witches Fingers & Apple Lips
Witches Fingers. Troll Toes. Alien Eyeballs. Tomato Gremlins. Apple Lips. These are going to come in handy when Halloween rolls around. They will dress up your buffet table and give everyone the heebeejeebees. Didn’t you do a double take when you saw those fingers? If you need to bring some little goodies to a party, make these and you’ve got the perfect hostess gift. So go mix up some green dough and get busy!
This green dough is great for modeling, just like clay. It doesn’t rise hardly at all, so you can make all the life-like details you want and they will bake off perfectly. I chose whole blanched almonds for the nails, but you could use skin-on almonds or sliced almonds. For the troll toes, I cut almonds in half with a serrated knife. I thought they looked pretty hoary and cool. Well, the trolls I know, that’s how their toenails look. Really.
I find these witches fingers to be seriously creepy. They’re just too lifelike. The blood on the ends (simulation) is Betty Crocker decorating gel from a little tube I got at Ralphs in the baking isle. If you are using sliced almonds for the nails, you can squeeze some of the gel on the finger ends and press the slices on it. A nice gory look. I used the decorating gel around the alien eyeballs also. There’s nothing like a little blood for Halloween gusto.
Here are my little Apple Lips with peanut butter tongues and sliced almond teeth. For some reason, these just make me grin. They are so silly. Kids of all ages love them, because they’re not only cute, but they taste good, too. Don’t they just look like a bunch of bad boys on that tray?
To keep the apples from turning brown, I submerged them in water that was saturated with ascorbic acid from the C-Gram Caps. I cut open one capsule, which has 1,000mg of Vitamin C and dumped the powder in the water. Then in went the apple lips for a 10 minute soak. I have tried lemon juice and vinegar, but they just didn’t work. After the Vitamin C bath, the apples stayed white for many hours until they were eaten.
As you can see, the Apple Lips are not the only ones who are big hams. Everybody wanted to be in every photo. Nag, whine, whine. Me. Me. Me.
One other thing. I seriously advise you to keep the Apple Lips away from the Witches Fingers.
You can also use it to make finger-shaped brownies, candies, or even gelatin desserts. The possibilities are endless, and it's a great way to get creative in the kitchen. To use the pan, simply prepare your favorite batter or dough recipe and fill each finger cavity with the mixture. Bake according to your recipe's instructions, then allow the treats to cool before removing them from the pan. The non-stick surface makes it easy to release the treats without any sticking or crumbling. Once your finger treats are cooled, you can get creative with the decorating. Use icing or melted chocolate to add fingernail details, create blood or slime effects, or even give your fingers a creepy green or purple hue. The sky's the limit when it comes to decorating these spooky treats. Whether you're baking for a Halloween party or just want to add a touch of whimsy to your baking repertoire, the Wilton Witch Finger Pan is a fun and versatile tool. It's a great way to bring a little extra spookiness to your treats and impress your friends and family with your creativity. So get baking and let your imagination run wild with this unique baking accessory..
Reviews for "A Wickedly Good Treat: Wilton Witch Finger Pam"
1. Linda - 2/5 - I purchased the Wilton Witch Finger Pan for a Halloween party and I have to say I was quite disappointed with the results. The pan itself was awkwardly shaped and made it difficult to get a clear and defined finger shape. The batter also stuck to the pan even though I greased and floured it properly. Additionally, the baking time mentioned in the instructions was way off, resulting in overcooked fingers. Overall, the Wilton Witch Finger Pan did not meet my expectations and I would not recommend it.
2. John - 1/5 - I had high hopes for the Wilton Witch Finger Pan, but unfortunately, it was a complete letdown. The pan felt flimsy and cheaply made, making it difficult to handle and remove from the oven without burning myself. The fingers did not come out well defined and were more like misshapen blobs. The non-stick coating also didn't work as promised, causing the fingers to stick to the pan. I ended up having to scrape them out, resulting in a messy and unappetizing presentation. Save your money and look for a better quality pan for Halloween baking.
3. Sarah - 2/5 - The Wilton Witch Finger Pan did not live up to my expectations. The fingers did not come out as detailed as shown in the product images and were lacking the creepy factor I was looking for. The pan itself felt quite thin and flimsy, and I was concerned about its durability. Another issue I encountered was that the fingers didn't bake evenly, with some parts being overcooked while others were undercooked. Overall, I was not impressed with this pan and would not recommend it for Halloween baking needs.
