Show us your best pumpkin carving for a chance to win a €100 voucher!

Spooky season has officially started and we want to see your pumpkin carving masterpieces. We're going to give the best pumpkin a €100 one4all voucher!

Halloween is the chance to go all out with costumes, decorations and – of course – sugary treats. It's also a chance for you and the family to get creative with your carving skills.

How to carve a pumpkin:

1. Draw a lid on top of your pumpkin. Make sure it's big enough for you to reach into.

2. Cut the lid out at an angle. Set it aside.

3. Remove the seeds and pulp.

4. Scrape the inside walls until they are 1 inch thick.

5. Draw your pattern into the pumpkin.

6. Cut along the lines that you drew and push out the shapes.

7. Insert a candle or battery-operated tea light and replace the lid.

8. Enjoy your spooky Halloween pumpkin and start cooking with the insides!

To enter all you have to do is carve your best pumpkin and submit it in the form below:
