- They are perfect for a group. Clementine Pumpkins would be so cute on charcuterie board or served with a meal for a group of people. Include some Mummy Hot Dogs too.

How to Make Clementine Pumpkins
The first step is to slice up a green pepper into small pieces to serve at the “stem”. They should be fairly thin and about 1/2-1 inch long.
Now simply peel the clementine and place the green pepper into the hole on top.
That’s it. Seriously!
Variations
Here are a few ways you could mix up this snack idea.
- Use a little piece of parsley as the stem.
- Don’t peel the clementines and just draw a little jack-lantern face on it.
- You could use celery as the stem.
