Get the simple recipe for spooky raspberry (blood) dark chocolates for Halloween. They're gluten-free, dairy-free, egg-free, nut-free, soya-free and refined sugar-free so everyone can enjoy and indulge!

It’s a peculiar day…

The air is still after yesterdays storm and tiny, lazy drops of rain fall from the sky. The weather seems to be reflecting my mood; calm yet unenthused…happy yet sad.

We’re currently applying for secondary schools for ‘Roo’ and today we found out that her best friend got into the grammar school she had applied for. At the same time, I continue the fight to try and get ‘Roo’ into the school I want her to go to. I’m not getting very far but I won’t give up!

Add to that a van that failed it’s MOT in many ways and a call from the garage at 8.30am this morning to say that the exhaust I had bought (at great expense online), didn’t fit…

And you get the picture of my mood reflecting the somewhat unexciting weather.

Make your own Halloween chocolates filled with 'blood'! These chocolates are free from the top allergens and also sugar (sweetened with a little honey).

Homemade vegan chocolate for Halloween

Anyway, I started creating this recipe for homemade vegan chocolate with raspberry ‘blood’, last night.

It was late and my patience was low.

I made the chocolate and the sauce and layered them together, knowing instantly that it wasn’t going to work.

The chocolate merged with the raspberry sauce in a halloween nightmare mess. I should have taken photos to make you laugh but I was too embarrassed.

Instead I set about making them again (once the van situation had been sorted. Is it me, or is life often about fire fighting rather than planning?!).

This time I made the chocolate and the sauce and froze each layer for 10 minutes before adding the next one.

The result? Perfect homemade vegan chocolate filled with raspberry ‘blood’.

Raspberry sauce filled homemade chocolates. This simple recipe is perfect for halloween. Bite into the homemade refined sugar-free dark chocolate to find 'blood' inside!

I can take no credit for the idea. It came from a blog called Elephantastic Vegan. If you don’t fancy making your own (very simple) refined sugar-free chocolate then follow her recipe. She uses shop bought baking chocolate.

Once again the recipe forms part of a ‘challenge’ I’m working on with other members of the Free From Comms Collective (a group of food bloggers who work together).

Author Vicki Montague - the Free From Fairy

Ingredients
 
 

  • For the chocolates:
  • 65 g coconut oil
  • 40 g cacao powder
  • 25 g coconut cream - or the thick part of a tin of coconut milk
  • 1 tbsp runny honey - or maple syrup if vegan
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • For the 'blood' sauce:
  • 100 g raspberries - fresh or frozen
  • Honey or maple syrup to taste

Instructions
 

  • First, make the raspberry sauce by bringing the frozen raspberries to the boil in a small pan and boiling them for around 3 minutes until a thick sauce is created
  • Sweeten to taste
  • Remove the raspberry sauce from the pan and place in the fridge to cool
  • Next add the coconut oil to the same pan (no need for washing up!) and leave it to melt
  • Once melted remove from the heat and add the other ingredients. Stir until smooth
  • Using small petit four cases (I used two together to add to the strength) on a baking tray place a small amount of liquid chocolate into the base of around 15 cases
  • Place in the freezer for 10 minutes
  • Remove from the freezer and add a small amount of raspberry sauce
  • Freeze again for 10 minutes before adding a small amount of melted chocolate to the top and freezing until set

    Perfectly ghoulish and ridiculously healthy Vicki! I think I might need to eat a whole batch because raspberry and chocolate is a very favourite combination of mine xx

    What a creepy, idea! My Beth would love the idea of these…being the vampire child that she is! However, mummy’s got the upper-hand here..I love dark chocolate, nothing too sweet and the raspberry would add the perfect bite…I win..all the chocolates for ME!

      Oh yes, although it is quite fun to watch the children bite into them (without telling them about the filling) and watching their surprise as the ‘blood’ escapes!!!

Hi. I'm Vicki Montague, scientist and mum to 'Roo' (16) and 'Sunshine' (14). I'm a freelance recipe developer specialising in 'free from' food and spend many hours in my kitchen experimenting to create exciting healthy recipes that are all gluten-free & mainly dairy-free. In July 2016 I launched the world's first wholegrain, gluten-free and rice-free flour blends. In May 2018 I launched my first online programme to help people adapt to a gluten free life. I can be found at food festivals giving cookery demos and I love nothing more than teaching people how to cook and lead a positive wholesome life. Find out more about my story...
