80s kids party food please.

Already got: fairy bread, snakes in cups, choc crackels, those cornflake things, terrible little frankfurts.

Those cornflake things are called honey joys. They deserve respect.

[–] Catfish@aussie.zone 4 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Thanks. I’ve need to mod them though, got a peanut allergy guest.

[–] TinyBreak@aussie.zone 3 points 2 months ago

I think your thinking of crunchy nut cereal.

[–] TinyBreak@aussie.zone 3 points 2 months ago

damn straight!

Cheezels, a bowl of smarties and frog in a pond.

Jelly slice, jelly slice, jelly slice.

Party pies! And dead horse to eat with franks and pies and mini sausage rolls. Best put on table in bowls so the sauce bottle doesn't get used as a weapon or smashed on the floor. Ask me how I know this (no, don't - it's embarrassing).

Toffee apples, but make one an onion.

I saw a reddit post where someone put Brussels sprouts in Ferrero Rocher wrappers for Halloween. Fucking genius.

We have a family tradition of lamingtons but one is a kitchen sponge. Funnily enough, there's always leftover lamingtons.

[–] Seagoon_@aussie.zone 4 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Jelly cups

mini pizzas

mini sausage rolls

[–] Catfish@aussie.zone 3 points 2 months ago

I think the last two aren’t decade specific

[–] Eagle@aussie.zone 4 points 2 months ago

English muffin pizza faces, butterfly cupcakes, little meringues, jelly cakes.

[–] underwatermagpies@aussie.zone 4 points 2 months ago (3 children)

Toffee in patty pans

Asparagus rolls if you want a 'posh' grown up option.

[–] Eagle@aussie.zone 4 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Oooh toffees. How much paper did you end up eating because it was stuck to the toffee?

[–] Catfish@aussie.zone 3 points 2 months ago

Too much. Getting braces put a swift end to that.

[–] Catfish@aussie.zone 3 points 2 months ago

Oh yes! Sprinkles in toffee.

It will be a total mash up kids stuff, Halloween, and the usual adult cheese etc boards.
