Ingredients

  • 4 ounces dried apricots

  • 4 ounces dried peaches

  • ½ pound seedless green grapes, halved

  • 2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar

  • 1 teaspoon water, or as needed

  • ¼ cup small candy eyeballs

Directions

  1. Arrange apricots and peaches on a platter. Skewer a few grapes on a toothpick vertically and the last one horizontally (for the head).

  2. Mix confectioners' sugar with water to make a thin, slightly sticky icing. Use icing to glue 2 candy eyeballs on each piece of fruit and on the horizontal "head" of the grape caterpillar.

Cook's Note:

Dried mangoes are great as well. You can even cut them into pumpkin shapes.
