Method

  1. Cut the plums in half and remove the stones. Push 8 cocktail sticks into each half (4 on each side) and thread 4 raisins lengthways onto each stick to resemble legs. Poke 2 goji berries into the tops for eyes. Make sure kids remove the cocktail sticks before eating!
  2. If making the yogurt dip, spoon the yogurt into a small, shallow dish and draw a spiderweb on the surface using the chocolate writing icing. Serve alongside the spiders.
