Halloween can be a lot of fun. It’s especially fun when trick-or-treaters accumulate a collection of all their favorite Halloween treats. Even if you don’t trick or treat, those who hand out Halloween treats often derive enjoyment from as well. Just looking into children’s happy faces and seeing them dressed up in their costumes is enough to make many people smile.
Some folks really get into it go all out with Halloween treats. Instead of one little piece of candy or gum, some will hand out large candy bars or even goodie bags with a variety of Halloween treats inside. You can find pre-made treat bags or make your own. Some may opt for a trendy, popular candy choice.
In the past few years, the assortment of Halloween treats has expanded to include much more than bubble gum and Pixie Sticks. You can pick up individually packaged snacks like Cheetos® and Doritos® as well. They come in small, single serving size bags with a Halloween motif, and they are sure to make your favorite trick-or-treaters happy.
You can also find granola bars, graham crackers, pretzels, fruit snacks, and other specially packaged Halloween treats. Some of these are seen as healthier alternatives to typical Halloween treats. While some people prefer these kinds of snacks others still enjoy the traditional, sugary goodies. Perhaps you would simply like to fill a large bowl or container with a variety of Halloween treats and let the little ghosts and goblins and princesses and pirates choose what they would like. It’s good to have a number of choices and you can certainly find something for everybody.
From fun size candy bars to small bags of candies such as M&M’s and Skittles, there is a great selection of Halloween treats available. You can also find variety packs that include several different types of candy instead of having to buy more than one bag. Some Halloween variety packs include a mixture of candy and gum or small toys and other favors along with candy.
One thing to keep in mind when shopping for Halloween treats is that many children have allergies. If you know anyone who has kids with peanut allergies, be sure to read labels when selecting treats. Even candies that don’t contain nuts may be processed in plants where nuts are present. Keep these treats away from those you have selected for children with allergies. An extremely sensitive child can be affected by even trace amounts of nut oils.
