Preparation

Cut the carrots, celery, pepper and cucumber into sticks.

Using a knife or cheese-cutters, cut out of the Canadian Cheddar slices amusing Halloween shapes, like pumpkins, ghost, crescent moon... Cut out 12 shapes total, as close together as possible to use maximum amount of cheese.

Spread peanut butter on crackers and top each one with one or two slices of apple and a cheese cutout. Decorate cheese cutouts with eyes and mouths, using apple peel, raisins or other pieces of fruit.

Serve with vegetable sticks and apple juice.
