These REALLY are the cutest Halloween Lollipops 🥹

A woman with long, wavy blonde hair and a bright smile stands in a kitchen. She is wearing a yellow floral dress with puffed sleeves and white buttons. The background shows white subway tiles and cabinets.

Does anyone else remember growing up making ghost lollipops?! I shared them on my Instagram years ago, and they went viral.

These spider lollipops are also giving me ALL the Halloween nostalgia. 🎃

If you need a quick cute Halloween treat, these are such a fun way to turn regular Halloween candy into something extra festive.

They would be adorable mixed in with your other Halloween sweet treats or as Halloween party treats too!

Heck, you could even pass these cuties out to trick-or-treaters. I bet their little faces would light up like a jolly jack-o’-lantern. 🎃🩷

Speaking of which… not witch (J/K), if you need a fun party drink don’t miss my jack-o-lantern floats too.

Spider Lollipops are SO Easy to Make

These little cuties are SO easy to make. Just wrap a few black pipe cleaners around a lollipop to create the spider legs, then add googly eyes with a little Elmer’s glue. So easy and SO cute! 🕷️🍭

Skip the Adhesive Googly Eyes!

I bought them thinking they would make this even easier… but they would NOT stick to the pipe cleaners. A tiny dot of Elmer’s glue worked perfectly for me.

Annnnd that’s literally it! A few simple supplies and you have the cutest Halloween lollipops ready for ALL the spooky fun.

How Cute would these be for a BOO Basket?!

I was going to save these spider lollipops for the kid’s BOO baskets but…. I got way too excited and surprised my kids after school, and they loved them!

As always, LMK if you have any questions! Sending Halloween hugs your way!

Notes

Use Elmer’s glue instead of adhesive googly eyes, which don’t stick well to the pipe cleaners. Let the glue dry completely before handling.
You can also use any flavor or color of Tootsie Pop you like.
