Making Mealtime Meaningful: Discover how we're giving back with the 12T Cares program →

It’s hard to believe that October is almost upon us and with that month comes the celebration of Halloween. We probably already smell pumpkin spice products coming from every possible store, from our coffee in the morning to our snacks at night. If you are somebody who enjoys celebrating Halloween, you might even have already gone through your decorations and started preparing for your costume.

If that isn’t enough to get you excited, Oreo has stepped up to the plate with a special Halloween product. It is the Oreo Monster Decorating Cookie Kit and it is just as fantastic as it sounds. As you probably have already surmised, the kit offers a spooky twist to the typical gingerbread man routine from the December holiday.

@JunkFoodMom appears to be the first person who spotted the product on Instagram and shared it with her followers:

“Oreo Monster decorating cookie kit. I’d have to buy a spare pack of Oreos to eat while I’m decorating. Too cute. 👻🎃💀🧛‍♂️🧟‍♂️ 👉🏻 FOUND IN KROGER.”

She then posted a picture of the product and said that each kit comes with 8 Oreo cookies, 8 pre-baked chocolate body cookies, pre-made icing, candy jewels, and fruity gummies.

The Instagramer found her kit at Kroger but you can also buy them at Amazon online for $20. It’s a great way to increase the fun of Halloween with the little ones in your home. Just imagine making some delicious cookie monsters and then enjoying them for a snack.

If you are not very good with crafts, don’t worry because there are plenty of instructions included with the kit. According to the pack, you will need to ‘massage icing pack until icing feels smooth and consistent inside. To start the flow of icing, cut a small opening at one of the corners of the icing pouch. Be sure not to cut the opening too large. Your icing is now ready to squeeze. Place some icing on the head of the body shaped cookie. Then place the Oreo cookie on top of the icing. Wait a couple of minutes to dry before decorating’. Just make sure you stick with the recommendation to have an adult around when the decorating is taking place because you may need to do some cutting.

“Have an adult help you cut up the fruity gummies and use your imagination to create cool shapes and designs. Use the candy jewels to really make your characters come to life,” the instructions add.

This sounds like an incredible amount of fun and I can’t wait for mine to show up at my front door.
