Like other Halloween charcuterie boards (have you seen the Hocus Pocus charcuterie?!), you’ll want to stock up on cured meats, leafy green fillers, fruits, crackers and different types of olives. While you prep the ingredients used in this spooky-cute party spread, it’s a good idea to take the burrata out of the fridge. It tastes best at room temperature!

How to Make a Boo-rata Board for Halloween

Ingredients

• Burrata: The reason this cheese works so well is because the mozzarella shell is filled with stracciatella, a super soft creamy cheese similar to cottage cheese. Once you cut into the firm shell, the creamy cheese will spill out, giving the ghost its shape.
• Arugula: This peppery leafy green pairs wonderfully with the mild, sweet taste of burrata cheese. This will be the grass in the ghost graveyard.
• Salami: You’ll use cut slices of salami as the little gravestones in the arugula grass.
• Olives: We used kalamata, but you can use black olives or other dark purple olives like Nyons or Niçoise to make the ghost’s face.
• Berries: Scatter blueberries and blackberries around the top of the ghost’s head to create a night sky.
• Cheddar cheese: You can never have too much cheese on a snack board! Use sliced cheddar to cut out a moon and stars to place in the night sky. Leftover cheddar slices work perfectly for making skeleton charcuterie too.

Directions

Step 1: Make the ghost

Place your ball of burrata in the center of your serving board. Cut a small wedge into the bottom so the creamy cheese inside spills out. Use the back of a spoon or a small cheese knife to push the creamy cheese aside like the bottom of a ghost. Cut a slice of an olive for the mouth, and use a straw (or a knife if you have patience) to create the olive eyes.

Step 2: Make the grass

Fill the bottom half of your snack board with arugula. Using a knife, cut U-shaped pieces of salami so they look like little gravestones. Scatter as many as you want in the arugula grass.

Step 3: Make the night sky

Fill the top half of the board with blueberries and blackberries. Make sure that the edge of the arugula and the edge of the berries are touching.

Step 4: Cut out the stars

This is where you’ll need some time and patience. Using a small knife, cut the cheddar slices into small stars and a crescent moon. If you have mini star cookie cutters, those will work like a charm!

Boo-rata Board Tips

Can you make a burrata board ahead of time?

Because most of the ingredients on this board are fresh produce and cheese, it’s best to assemble this board as close to serving as you can. This being said, you can prep a few things a day in advance to make assembly a breeze.

To start, rinse your berries and the arugula. Put the arugula in a salad spinner or press it between paper towels so it doesn’t wilt. You can also cut out the stars and moon and store them pressed between two layers of parchment in a resealable plastic bag. Cut the salami gravestones and store them in a resealable plastic bag. The next day, all you’ll have to do is pull out your prepped ingredients and assemble.

What else can I put on a boo-rata board?

If your board is big enough, surround the ghost, graveyard and sky with ribbons of prosciutto and crostini toasts. Slice and toast a loaf French bread for the easiest vehicle to scoop soft burrata. You can also toss the arugula in good olive oil and sprinkle in fresh basil for more depth of flavor.

Balsamic glaze would be a sweet option to replace the olives on the ghost’s face if you don’t want to buy a whole jar of olives just for the eyes and mouth. You can also sprinkle in cherry tomatoes for a Caprese-inspired twist.

Can I use mozzarella if I can’t find burrata?

You can technically swap mozzarella for burrata, but cutting into mozzarella won’t provide the same spillover effect to create the cloud-like bottom of a ghost. You might just have to be creative with how you cut a log of mozzarella to create a ghost shape! If you can’t find a log of mozz, use the ball and cut out multiple little ghosts.

Here are all the slimy little details!

What’s on the Ghostbusters doughnuts?

There are four new doughnuts to hunt down this Halloween. You’ll want to catch all of ’em in your Ghost Trap (along with the rest of these fall fast-food items).

Ghostbusters Cookies N’ Creme Doughnut

This is a Krispy Kreme Original Glazed doughnut dipped in sweet chocolate icing and topped with crumbled Oreo pieces, a swirl of Oreo buttercreme and an edible version of the famous No Ghost logo. I’m a massive fan of the glazed doughnuts at Krispy Kreme, as well as anything with Oreos. This is an absolute must-try for me. And besides, how can that Ghostbusters logo not flood you with nostalgia?

Stay Puft Marshmallow Man Pull-Apart

This doughnut has the most interesting shape by far. This Original Glazed doughnut is topped with marshmallow-flavored buttercreme and a blanket of powdered sugar as an homage to the one and only giant Stay Puft Marshmallow Man. He’s even got a candy-fied version of his face on top! When I tell you this was an immediate want for me, I really mean it. Marshmallow-flavored treats are a weakness of mine, and I’ve always loved the ridiculousness of the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man. I don’t know if he’d love being pulled apart, though.

Slimer Doughnut

This doughnut has a bright green lemon-flavored filling and is dipped in a beautiful purple icing with a slimy green icing design. To finish the treat off, the doughnut is topped with an edible Slimer himself. When I think Ghostbusters, my mind always runs to Slimer. He grossed me out as a kid, but he added so much personality to the film. I hope he would be as excited for the lemon-flavored filling as I am.

Ecto-Sprinkled Doughnut

This one is an Original Glazed doughnut dipped in orange icing and topped with neon sprinkles. While it’s not the most novel of the bunch, I absolutely love the orange color for the Halloween season. It would have been cute to have a little candy of the proton pack in the middle, but I imagine the taste will still be delicious.

How long are Ghostbusters doughnuts at Krispy Kreme?

The doughnuts are a limited release for spooky season and will likely be gone by October 31. You need to grab your Ghostbusters dozen ASAP before they’re lost to Zuul forever.

Ingredients

• 1 cinnamon stick (3 inches)
• 1 whole star anise
• 1-in. piece fresh gingerroot, peeled
• Honey, optional
• Lemon wedges, optional

Our editors tried two of the most popular options for the viral Harry Potter floating candles to see if they’re worth the hype—and price. Here’s what we thought. 

What are Harry Potter floating candles?

If you’ve seen one of the Harry Potter movies (or read the books), you know that the Great Hall at Hogwarts is enchanted to look like the outside sky. During feasts and dinners, thousands of candles float overhead and illuminate the tables below so students can see their pumpkin pasties and treacle tart.

Now, muggles can bring that enchanting magic into their own homes with the help of battery-powered candles and fishing line. Influencers all over TikTok and Instagram have been sharing their Hogwarts-inspired porches, dining rooms and hallways. Some have even used LED lights and poly-fill to create a lightning and cloud effect. Just like the viral Pottery Barn pillows and giant Home Depot skeleton, this was one Halloween trend we couldn’t wait to try.   

How We Tested Harry Potter Floating Candles

To make sure this TikTok product is as magical as it looks, I tested Harry Potter floating candles alongside Content Director Nicole Doster. I tried the viral 20-pack that comes with a wand-shaped remote and Nicole opted for a set of six dripping candles made of real wax.

Floating Candles with Wand

After seeing dozens of Instagram reels, I ordered my own set of Harry Potter floating candles on Amazon Prime Day in July (by the way, another Prime Day is happening this fall on October 8 and 9). I knew that they would add a spooky glow to my Halloween decor and hopefully add some ambiance as we transition into the long, dark nights of fall.

My set arrived in a neat black box and included 20 candles that were roughly 6 inches long, a wand remote, hanging hooks, glue dots and a spool of fishing line. There was also a “Hogwarts acceptance letter” which I thought was pretty funny, especially since this set is not officially licensed.

Each candle requires one AAA battery, so keep that cost in mind before clicking add to cart. (I worked my way through half a Costco pack just for these candles.) Adding the batteries is pretty easy—simply twist off the bottom and pop in the AAA. Unfortunately, two of the candles would not screw back together with a battery inside. I could have likely troubleshooted the issue and taped them closed, but since I was decorating a relatively small space, I just cut my losses.

The next step was a little trickier. You need to thread the fishing line through the tip of the candle flame. This worked just fine for about half the candles, but the other half had a hole that was too small for the task. I raided my sewing kit and grabbed a needle to gently make the hole larger, but this was a tedious step I wasn’t expecting. Finally, though, the candles were ready to hang.

I knew I wanted to decorate our family room with candles, as that’s where our TV lives. (Hello, Harry Potter movie marathon!) The instruction sheet warns that the included hangers can damage the ceiling finish, so I wanted to find an inconspicuous spot. I settled on the nook above my bar cart and got to work. Each plastic hanger adhered quickly and easily. I looped the fishing line through, adjusted it to the desired height and tied off the line. Since I was working in such a small space, I only ended up hanging about a dozen candles. I placed the rest on my TV stand with the included glue dots.

Finally, after about an hour of work, I was able to wave the remote wand and enjoy the fruits of my labor. The result was pretty impressive. The candles really do look like they’re suspended in mid-air, especially at night. And I love the warm glow they cast—without the safety risk of 20 live flames.

After about a month of use, they’re still going strong. I haven’t had any issues with batteries burning out or candles falling. In fact, they’re so pretty that I plan to keep them up for Christmas, too. Now, all I need to do is whip up some Harry Potter recipes for my next movie night!

Dripping Wax Candles with Remote

If you’re looking for a bigger impact, Nicole Doster tested a set of larger Harry Potter floating candles. The set of six measures about 10 inches long and is thicker, too. But what’s even cooler is that they’re made of real wax, making the illusion look even more lifelike.

“I’ve been using these flameless tapered candles around the holidays for the past three years and love to hang them from the ceiling for a floating candle effect,” Nicole explains. “They are wrapped in real wax and have a realistic flame that flickers. Friends and family have even asked me if they were real.”

Each candle requires two AAA batteries to work, so again, keep that extra cost in mind when choosing which Harry Potter floating candles to bring home. Plus, this set does not come with hanging tools. But Nicole admits that it’s easy enough to do with fishing wire and adhesive hooks.

The candles also come with a standard remote control with options for a timer and adjusting the flicker mode and the brightness. “I have never found the brightness mode very helpful since I always want them bright!” Nicole says.

Whether you’re hosting a Harry Potter party or a spooky dinner soiree, this set casts a magical, realistic glow.

With the price of candy going up, it’s smart to shop around! Here’s the scoop on where to find good, cheap Halloween candy for trick-or-treating.

Best Cheap Halloween Candy: Walmart

It’s not unusual to see Halloween treats appear as early as August. For the best price on Halloween candy, though, don’t buy early. Wait for a sale. It’s not unusual to find big bags of mixed chocolate or Skittles and Starburst half-off, whether you’re shopping at stores like Target and Walmart or Walgreens and CVS.

That said, if you want to run out to the store and buy candy right now, head to Walmart. The retailer is famous for its everyday low prices, and CBS News called it the best place to head for affordable Halloween candy. Walmart also carries the widest range of options, including name-brand candy and mixed packs of candy bars in every size. The store even has deals on the most popular Halloween candy, like M&M’s and Reese’s.

Best Cheap Halloween Candy in Bulk: Costco

No surprise here: Costco is the best place to stock up on Halloween candy in bulk. Look out for Kirkland Signature’s 150-piece bags of candy. The giant bags are perfect if you live in a popular neighborhood for trick-or-treating or plan to throw a monstrous Halloween party.

When does Halloween candy go on sale?

Usually, Halloween candy goes on clearance the day after Halloween, so if you’re buying candy to keep in the pantry, wait for November 1. You’ll probably have a more limited choice of brands, though. (It always seems to be mini Snickers left on the shelf in my neighborhood.)

But! You can find candy on sale throughout October, even in the days leading up to Halloween. It won’t be the rock-bottom pieces you’ll find in November when the stores want to clear shelves to make room for Thanksgiving decorations. But a BOGO sale means cheap Halloween candy, so don’t pass it up. Don’t forget to fish out a few Reese’s cups for yourself.
