Recipe: Spooky Spider Halloween Jelly

Spooky spider cobweb Halloween jelly

These spooky jellies are ideal for all the family this Halloween.  A lot healthier than most Halloween treats, these orange jellies will make you wonder why you haven’t tried them before.   All you need is chocolate, oranges and gelatine (and maybe some skill for the cobwebs)
