Method

Preheat oven to 180°C. : Beat butter and Chelsea White Sugar until pale, mix in the Chelsea Golden Syrup followed by the egg. Sift dry ingredients and combine with the butter mix to form a dough.
Roll out dough between two sheets of baking paper to roughly 3mm thick. Remove top paper layer, press out shapes using a using a biscuit cutter, remove excess dough. Place biscuits (on the paper) onto a baking tray. Press remaining dough together and roll out again, pressing out shapes until mixture is used up. Bake for 15 minutes, cool on a wire rack before decorating.
Decoration: : Sugar syrup: boil Chelsea White Sugar and water until sugar has dissolved, leave to cool.
Pumpkin stalk: cut off a small section of icing, add green colouring, mix until combined, cover with plastic wrap, set aside.
Pumpkin: Add orange food colouring until the desired colour is reached (gel food colours work best as they don't dilute the icing). Roll out icing, press out shape using the same biscuit cutter (keep any unused icing in plastic wrap to avoid it drying out). Brush top of biscuit with sugar syrup. Place icing shape over biscuit, press indents into the top and base using your thumb. Shape a small piece of green icing into a stalk and press into the top (brush with sugar syrup to help it stick) . Press lines into the icing using the rim of a cup or draw them using the tip of a paintbrush handle. Using a small knife, cut out the eyes, nose and mouth and remove pieces.

For the spider web version, simply cut out icing shape and attached (as above). Use a black gel pen draw on the web detail. Click on Step by step instructions to see our guide photos!
