Ingredients:

For Pumpkin Candy Box:

Cut tip off end of decorating bag and fill box bottom mold with melted orange candy. Gently tap mold on flat surface to eliminate air bubbles. Refrigerate 20-30 minutes or until set.

Meanwhile, using decorating brush, paint facial features on box top mold using melted light cocoa candy; place mold in refrigerator for 5 minutes. When set, fill mold using additional melted orange candy. Gently tap filled mold on flat surface to eliminate air bubbles. Refrigerate 10-15 minutes or until set. Unmold both pieces; carefully trim excess candy.

For mini ghosts, leaves and pumpkins:

Using decorating brush, paint details with melted candy; refrigerate 5 minutes or until set. Fill with remaining melted candy; tap mold on flat surface to eliminate air bubbles. Refrigerate 10 minutes or until set.
