Browsing through Pinterest ideas on any topic can give you the false sense that these seemingly easy DIY projects are absolutely doable at home without any prior experience at crafts. Well, that is until you try and actually do them yourself - cue for frustration, sweating, and swearing. It turns out that the Haloween snacks that you've picked from the Pinterest galore aren't so doable, and the result is eligible for funny fails crown.
Pinterest is always full of utterly delicious Halloween ideas that seem impossible to pull off for those of us not blessed by the baking gods. Plenty of spooky recipes have been floating around now that it's the right season, but judging by these Pinterest fails photos, not everyone has had an easy time following directions!
If you've had a funny Halloween DIY fail, don't be ashamed – share it with us for a good laugh!

People, really. Let your baked goods cool completely before you frost them!
SusanRamsay 10 years ago
Someone must be holding the one with shoes really close to the camera. Almost as funny as the fail itself!

Vampire Teeth Cookies

This is ridiculous. Seems failed on purpose just to post it online and get likes.
LincolnHoYegventures 10 years ago
The original decorations were added after the cookies were baked.

Came to say this. It's not like a fail of someone without talent... it's like it was made by a 2 year old with no control on his hands.

They failed to trim the top off the cakes. Otherwise this could have worked

I think someone was drinking a little too much of the Jose in the background....lol!

Witchy Fingers
KristineSihto 10 years ago
I don't know what they tried to make them from... Witch fingers are generally made with marzipan, not biscuits

The failed ones look more appetizing (I don't think I spelled that right) :)

Banana Ghosts
CourtneyAcevedo 10 years ago
This has to be the easiest one to make, yet it was failed miserably.
Epicdragontamer 10 years ago
Look closely ........... The bananas have something over it......
Annie 10 years ago
It's one mistake, could've happened to anyone. Don't beat them up, they would look appetising with a bit more effort.

No offense but you do realize that the entire point of this particular post to show the worst of the worst Pinterest fails so everyone can laugh and poke fun of them, right? It's actually in the title so I can't imagine you missing it. No ones trying to be mean or malicious. Sometimes you just gotta throw your hands up and be able to laugh at yourself.

Why do people squish cookies on one sheet like that? Of course it would fail!

It helps when you let the cookies cool before you add something that melts.

Surprise Pumpkin Pound Cake
GlynisRoss-Munro 10 years ago
I think you have to 1) cook the cake through and 2) wait for it to cool before you ice it :)
Hammerhead Shark Gamer 3 years ago (edited)
So many pumpkins in this list. They are my favorite fruit! And YES, a pumpkin IS a fruit, don't argue with me

I agree with the commenter who said these look like they were failed on purpose. Some of the mistakes were to obviously simple

Mummy Hot Dogs
MikiNyckel 10 years ago
These are classics, have to actually cook the dough with the dog. What did they do, put it in a bun and cut up the bun?! I mean really ...
TeresaStockroske 10 years ago
They had to not have been trying or did something wrong. I have done pigs in a blanket and they have came out the same colour as the one on the left.

Looks more like a Christmas scene than Halloween. And what does Hunger Games have to do with either one?

CarolineLynch 10 years ago
I think most the these fails were done on purpose...come on people, are you really that lame?
AnujaJadhav 10 years ago
I dont think so. If she would have succeeded she could have got a better "Nailed it!" album
