Pumpkin pudding cake
Here’s a quick and easy recipe for a pumpkin flan cake that keeps effort to a minimum by using a microwave and a blender.
A flan cake uses more eggs than a regular custard, so it sets firmer than typical pudding.
Even if you soften the pumpkin by heating it, mashing it until perfectly smooth can be tedious.
That’s why this recipe shines: you simply blitz the custard mixture and pumpkin together in a blender.
It’s foolproof enough for even the laziest cooks—give it a try!
Sweet pumpkin
All you need to buy is heavy cream and pumpkin—everything else is likely in your pantry—to make an easy Halloween treat called Sweet Pumpkin.
It’s basically a sweet potato recipe (sweet potato paste) made with pumpkin instead.
Be careful not to burn yourself when cutting the pumpkin after heating it for the filling, as it will be very hot.
Once the Sweet Pumpkin filling is ready, have the kids help scoop it into cups and enjoy making it together.
After that, just bake it in the oven—it’s a simple recipe, so make plenty and serve them at your Halloween party!
Pumpkin pie
Here’s a pumpkin pie recipe you can easily make with ingredients from any supermarket.
Since you use the skin as well, you get to enjoy the whole pumpkin with that fluffy, hearty texture.
The silky, moist pumpkin cream made with heavy cream contrasts beautifully with the crisp, flaky crust—it’s a wonderful combination.
After baking, you sprinkle finely chopped pumpkin skin over the top, so nothing goes to waste.
Give it a try!

Eyeball jelly
Eyeball jelly is a slightly creepy dessert that’s perfect for Halloween.
It only takes three ingredients, so it’s easy to make.
The key to the flavor is undiluted Calpis—add more if you like a stronger taste.
Since it uses agar, you need to work quickly or it will start to set, so be careful.
You’ll use food coloring for the pupil, so make sure to get that in advance.
The finished result looks very realistic and eerie, so it might be a bit scary for small children.
Ghost Shoe Tower
These are Halloween-themed sweets made by arranging classic snacks you can buy at convenience stores or supermarkets.
You coat mini cream puffs with chocolate, but store-bought chocolate is limited to a few colors like black, brown, and white.
If you squeeze chocolate pen contents into a bowl and microwave them, you’ll get a wider variety.
Be careful—the chocolate pen contents set quickly! You can also create your own colors by mixing different chocolates and melting them together in a hot water bath.
Pumpkin Mont Blanc
Mont Blanc is a classic autumn dessert.
It’s also delicious when made with pumpkin, another fall favorite.
First, microwave the pumpkin and scoop out the flesh with a spoon.
It’s a great idea to finely slice the skin and use it as a garnish.
How about trying a variation with rum or cinnamon? It has a look and flavor a bit different from the Mont Blanc you’re used to seeing at cake shops.

Pumpkin tart
This tart pairs wonderfully with pumpkin.
First, finely crush some biscuits and mix them with butter.
Then microwave the pumpkin and combine it with sugar, eggs, and heavy cream—ideally using a hand mixer for this step.
Finally, just bake it in the oven; it’s a very simple recipe.
If you like, add cinnamon or almond powder at the end for a different flavor.
The crust is moist and very easy to eat.
