Phyllis Hoffman Celebrate Halloween

Found this magazine at Target. Very enjoyable party planning section. The entire menu with recipes for a specific theme party. A buffet style party, Masquerade dessert party, and a murder mystery dinner party. Nice decor ideas including lovely table centerpieces. If someone makes that cake on the cover...please invite me to your party! Its five layers of chocolate, pistachio filling, and topped with a chocolate ganache icing.

I miss the days I could cater my own party......this sounds like fun. I am going to get a copy and dream of the days when my I can do this....because there are not 150 people at my house!!

Thanks for sharing. I will definately pick one up!!!

Cheers!

That green cake looks amazing. Have you checked out the Martha Halloween Issue yet? Fabulous!

I want some of that cake. I need to seriously try to track down this magazine. I've looked at a few of the grocery stores and they don't have this one. They all just have the Phillis Hoffman Celebrate Fall. Time for a bookstore run!!

The only place I could find it was Target.

I found the magazine at Sam's Club back in the book section in their magazine rack. I'm going to make that cake for my sister's annual Halloween party. Great issue!

I was looking at your magazine Celebrate for Holloween and you have some beautiful ideas and great decor. The one I mostly like was leaf n petal table stand you have on page 102. Could you tell me where to purchase this wonderful table piece and what the cost would be? Thank you, Sandra

My brother in law made this cake for Thanksgiving and it looked amazing and tasted fantastic! Nobody could believe that he had actually made it...except for the fact that we saw him put the ganache on!

We have a Halloween parade in the neighborhood that winds around a short path and then they all hit the houses for treats. Big rush righ...
