"Fun-Sized" Candy Bars

After Halloween you're libel to have some "Fun-Sized" candy bars around, either because you had less goblins than you anticipated, and you became too nauseous to eat any more, or your own goblins brought them home.

If I had a time machine, I would go back in time and punch whoever invented the Fun Size candy bar.
Because you know what? They aren't very fun at all. Eating just one is definitely not fun (too small!) and when you inevitably try to satisfy your candy appetite by eating 10-12 of the pint-sized treats, what you feel is basically the opposite of fun.

Can this sticky situation be salvaged in time for Halloween, when Fun Size reigns? In the name of science, I purchased an entire bag of Fun Size Snickers bars and tried in several different ways to put the fun back in Fun Size. I'm happy to report that it was indeed fun, decidedly delicious, and these ideas could easily be translated to other Fun size variations (perhaps not so much on the non-chocolate varieties such as Starburst or Skittles, though I encourage you to choose your own adventures). Ready for some fun? Let's do it:

And oh my, does she ever do it!

Oh, and you people that wouldn't think of mistreating your body with unhealthy candy bars, wish to watch your figure, don't believe in hollow calories... you go right to hell... go on, git. :lol:

I try not to buy Halloween candy that I actually like.

"Fun sized frosting sandwich," - brilliant!

The Fun Size Shortbread looks perfect.

oh wait, that's fun-shaped

the Fun sized snicker Smore is interesting

I got a little sick just looking at those creations.

I like making cupcakes for trick-or-treaters. Even the adults want some when I make 'em. :D Thinking of making small cupcakes this year. :D

Contrariwise, I never get any other sort. What I like to give is the things I liked to get.

That would count as an unwrapped treat, and therefore is on most parent's discard immediately lists. They are also too fragile for an average pillowcase load.

Since you go to all the trouble making them, I'll be happy to eat them for you, just so they don't go to waste.

I think Tulip lives in a pretty close knit community, where the only kids coming around are all known to her, and they all know her. In that case, cupcakes would work ok.
