Apple Halloween Monster


Maxwell is a huge fan of food and loves to eat anything, however this Halloween I thought I would make him something special and creative. I came up with the idea of making a "Halloween Monster" for him.

You will need:
Apple
Skewers
Raisins
Large Marshmallows
Smarties
Red Food Colouring
Sweetie Teeth
  1. Cut your apple in half's around the core, I used the larger sides to get a wider area to work with.
  2. Cut one of your apple pieces bottoms off so it sits flat when on a surface.
  3. Place the 2 pieces of apple together by using skewers.
  4. Get 2 large marshmallows and attach these on top of the skewers, push 2 raisins into the marshmallows to make the eyes. 
  5. Use the end of a skewer and decorate the apple and the eyes with with red food colouring.
  6. Add smarties in the apple to make a funky looking affect and add the teeth/fangs to complete your Halloween Monster.


Spatone Apple Competition

Are you feeling tired and in need of a boast?
Lacking energy or motivation?

Whilst pregnant with Maxwell I felt very tired all the time. I had no energy and all I wanted to do was sit down or sleep. I went on a routine trip to my midwife and asked her why I was feeling like this and after a few test I was told I was suffering with low iron levels.

Iron is an essential mineral for the human body and is required to transport oxygen around the body to ensure vitality and energy release. I was advised by my midwife at the time to improve my diet and add things such as spinach and broccoli which have high iron levels or use Spatone Apple. 


Spatone Apple is a liquid iron supplement with natural Spatone spa water which is sourced from the Welsh mountains and has had added Vitamin C to aid the iron absorption. It is great tasting and can be drunk on its own or added to a drink to make a fruitier drink. The sachets that the Spatone comes in are very tiny and you are able to take them anywhere. 

After a week of using the Spatone Apple I was feeling much more energetic and less tired. Since I have given birth to Maxwell I have continued to use Spatone and have seen what a difference it has made to me. I am no longer tired however I am much more happy and more alert and ready for the day ahead each day.

Spatone Apple is available from Boots priced £9.95 for 28 sachets (4 weeks supply). For more info visit www.spatone.com
