Frequently Asked Questions

What type of cheese should I use?

I like to use the mozzarella pearls. They are the perfect size and there's little to no work involved with them. Simply open up the package and drain the liquid. Separate and you are ready to go!

What is the "blood"?

The blood is tomato sauce -- plain and simple. Serve it on a plate, on a platter, or in a bowl!

Are these just for decoration?

While the flavor of the Bloody Mozzarella Eyeballs is not complex/something to write home about, if you like the three simple ingredients... they are absolutely edible. It might even scare your little ones even more if you popped one in your mouth!
