How to make edible blood! Halloween is just around the corner and making a batch of edible blood is a great way to spend the day in your kitchen with the kids. As a basic starting point you will need some or most of the following items: A dark red liquid (fruit punch, or a bunch of red food coloring) Red food coloring Corn syrup Corn starch Coco powder Green food coloring Chocolate syrup I’d suggest starting with a red liquid. If it’s not quite red enough you can add a few drops of red food coloring. Then try adding the corn syrup to thicken it up a bit. Depending on your color you may need to add some Coco powder or chocolate syrup. It just depends on how things look. Remember that real blood is not bright red, but has a tinge of brown that the coco powder can bring out. Check out how we do it!
