It’s not easy being the kid of a food blogger. Just ask mine!
There’s all that posing with the produce, being the hand model for a fork holding a perfect bite of cake, testing the cookies that arrive in the mail, emptying the dishwasher twice a day when mom is on a cooking binge…it’s hellish, I tell you!
And then there’s Halloween, when mom wants you to go as some funny food. Here are some fabulously creative examples I picked up from my social media feeds. I love the brilliance!
1. The Morton Salt girl!
2. Pot o’ coffee!
3. Baby hot dog cart!
4. Crab Cake (get it? a crab on top of a cake…get it? I love this so much because it is witty AND cute!)
5. Marshallow on the campfire!
6. Milk and cookies!
7. Original Recipe KFC!
8. A mom food blogger! (This costume is scariest of all…baby in one hand, wine in the other, apron on ready for anything!)
9. Instagram! (Food bloggers are required to Instagram every bite they eat, or make, or buy, or think about…or they’re kicked out of the club.)
10. Vending machine! (What our kids are eating after they toss those date-chia-kale-quinoa-gluten-free-granola-bars we lovingly made them. Adore this creativity! Credit: FamilySpice.com)

Absolutely love your creative idea with kid’s costumes! Can I post it on my blog? Thanks for sharing!
Julia,
Thanks for the compliment!
I would rather you NOT post my post on your blog, but if you want to refer to it and give the URL so people can come here and look at it, I would be most grateful.
Wow..Food Bloggers’ Kids is something new for me! LOL) Milk and cookies costume so funny! I found your post from Pinterest! Thanks for sharing!
I love these!!!! Especially the cup of Starbucks cappuccino !! Adorable!
Susan,
And then your kids grow up and it becomes all about the gore…
These are too cute! The Milk Mom and Hot Dog Cart are so sweet and the S’mores are brilliant! If only mine would choose cute rather than gory!
Valentina, I agree. We are in the gory stage.
I like the Morton Salt girl. She is so poised and perfect! Plus I like salt.
Patricia,
When I was small, I had my hair in a pageboy and people used to tell me I looked like the Morton Salt girl.
These are TOO CUTE. I want to dress my 13 month old up as a Frappuccino!! 😀
Rebekah,
Best cup o’ joe you EVER would see!
Oh my gosh, these are fabulous!!!!
Tanya,
Aren’t they fun?
Food blogger or no, these are absolutely hilarious. That latte kills me!
