Make the Halloween season extra fun by whipping up some easy to make desserts! These Witch Pudding Parfaits are super hands on and very kid friendly, making them a great after school snack or family night activity!

I’ve been talking a lot about traditions lately. Maybe it is the time of year or maybe I am just feeling super sentimental; but I can’t help but reminiscence of days long ago, all while trying to embrace every little moment of today.

While my family had very specific traditions for every holiday growing up, one of the beautiful things about life is that as you grow older, become an adult, meet your significant other and begin your own family, new traditions are born.

Because just like my family had our traditions, my husband’s family had their own. Getting together meant learning about each other, accepting quarks, and becoming one. I love that we both had very specific holiday traditions from our childhood but that we have also started our own.

Not only do traditions shape who you are, how you were raised in general, of course, plays a vital role as to how you view the world as an adult. Again, these little things are the things you hold on to as an adult or change once you start your own family. For us, many of these “preferences” revolve around food.

As we have moved through the month of October, anxiously awaiting Halloween, we have carried on our priceless traditions. Our scary movie marathon, the pumpkin patch, carving pumpkins and of course concocting some cute and sometimes gross Ghoulish Grub!

This Ghoulish Grub tradition has truly become our own, planning special Halloween treats and eats to enjoy as we watch and laugh at cheesy 1980’s “scary” movies.

This year we popped in a haunting movie and with our powers combined, came up with these fun, cute and yummy Witch Snack Pack Pudding Parfaits! We had a blast making and eating these festive pudding parfaits and channeling our childhood!

I can’t wait to add these to our ever-growing collection of Ghoulish Grub recipes and continue this Halloween tradition for many years to come!
