Halloween isn’t just about costumes and candy—it’s also the perfect opportunity to bring creativity into your menu. Whether you’re hosting a haunted house party, planning a spooky corporate event, or throwing a family get-together, the right food can transform your celebration from ordinary to unforgettable.
At Fuego & Salt, we combine seasonal flavors with creative presentation to make Halloween parties in Melbourne, FL, the Space Coast, and Central Florida come alive with both style and taste.
1. Bewitching Appetizers
Start the night off with bite-sized treats that are as fun to look at as they are to eat.
🕸️ Ideas:

Spooky Caprese Skewers: Mozzarella balls and cherry tomatoes with balsamic glaze “spider webs.”
These playful starters set the tone for the night and give guests plenty to talk about.
