Next, Firefighter Tim showed how to make treats resembling “used bandages,” made with icing and strawberry preserves for a realistic touch, a project he noted kids could enjoy helping with. Firefighter Tim also presented skull-shaped cherry pies, where he used store-bought pie crust and cherry filling, adding, “I just bought some pie crust … You’re trying to do something quick because you have costumes to make.”

The Halloween treats continued with “cinnamon roll guts.” Firefighter Tim explained, “You just take these [pre-made cinnamon rolls] and coil them around to look like intestines.” He added red food coloring to the icing to give it a bloody appearance, cautioning viewers that items fresh out of the oven can stay hot longer than expected.
Finishing with ghost-shaped treats, Firefighter Tim dipped marshmallows in melted white chocolate and added candy eyes, joking about their imperfect appearance: “Not only can these be ghosts, but as soon as Halloween’s over, they can also just be melted snowmen.”
