October is pretty much the one month out of the year where it’s socially acceptable to eat the craziest concoctions of sugar ever invented. Honestly, the other 11 months of the year don’t really stop us from sugar concoctions. Our blog name is SUGAR & Cloth.

So we’re happy to present this sugary concoction that we created call the Monster Guts. It’s a monstrously fun and festive treat that we made for our Halloween mad scientist party.

  • Sprinkles — Round nonpareils sprinkles work best to stick on the glasses.
