]]> Trick-and-treating is one of the best parts of Halloween—both for kids and the hosts. There’s nothing quite like seeing a smile on trick-or-treaters’ faces once they take the candy—but you’ll have to make the right choice to make them happy. If you’re not sure what to serve, here are three things you should keep in mind.

Homemade Treats

Giving out homemade treats has been going out of style in recent years, due to safety concerns raised by some parents. If you want to make some homemade Halloween cookies, don’t go overboard because many kids won’t take them, so it’s often better to stick to pre-packaged stuff.

Kids With Allergies

Some of the kids coming to your home this Halloween may be lactose intolerant or allergic to nuts or gluten. That’s why you should keep your candy choice as versatile as possible, and make sure it includes dairy, nut, and gluten-free options if possible.

Keep It Healthy

Trick-or-treaters will collect a bunch of unhealthy candy along the way, so why not try to make your selection a little bit better? Sugar-free candy, popcorn balls, dark chocolate, and chocolate-covered fruits are some of the delicious, yet healthy Halloween candy choices.

]]> Halloween candy is one of the best indulgences of this time of year, whether it’s leftover from trick-or-treating or bought on sale post-Halloween. But you might get sick of having them just one way, so if you love Halloween candy but don’t feel like stocking up on bags of sugary bars, here’s an alternative: Make coffee that tastes like candy! Here are several coffees you can make that are based on your favorite Halloween treats.

Snickers Latte

Snickers is one of the most basic Halloween candies, and luckily its flavors are easy to mix into coffee. All you need is chocolate syrup, caramel syrup, and hazelnut syrup (for the peanuts)! Top with whipped cream and some chocolate sauce!

Candy Corn Latte

Candy corn is one of those foods that no one really likes, but no one can stop eating it once they start. It turns out that the lesser-known way of consuming it is in syrup form, which you can buy from the store and use to flavor coffee. Or, you can make your own by melting down candy corn with water and a bit of honey and vanilla extract.

Reese’s Latte

Many people will tell you that Reese’s cups are their favorite Halloween candy. To make a Reese’s latte, simply add creamy peanut butter, chocolate syrup, and a little vanilla extract to your coffee. Or if you’re feeling like a kid, just mix an actual Reese’s cup in there.

]]> Halloween is the spookiest holiday of the year, but TikTok is here to help you make it extra sweet. Check out the viral recipes that everyone on this social media platform has been raving about this holiday season.

Spider Cookies

Spooky cookies are taking TikTok by storm right now. If we had to pick the most popular variety, spider cookies would make the cut. In addition to looking delicious, it doesn’t hurt their case that they’re incredibly easy to make.

Spooky Strawberries

Butterbeer

If you enjoy dressing up as Harry Potter characters every Halloween, how about preparing a menu that pays homage to this fantasy series. Butterbeer is the most popular drink it introduced us to, and there are many TikTok recipes teaching you how to make your own version.

Pumpkin Bread

Unlike the previous recipes, pumpkin bread isn’t necessarily spooky. It’s associated with Halloween because pumpkins are used as the main ingredients, but you can basically eat it as long as this veggie is in season.

]]> Candy bark is a fun and easy way to create a festive snack with just a few ingredients. It’s super customizable and kid-friendly, so if you’re looking for a simple treat that you can make along with little ones, we’ve got a recipe sure to satisfy time and time again!

Ingredients

  • 1 pound of milk or white chocolate candy melts
  • Food coloring if using white chocolate (orange, purple, or green for Halloween)
  • Add-ins of choice, we suggest:
    • Halloween-themed sprinkles, orange M&Ms or Reese’s Pieces, crushed pretzels, crushed Oreo cookies

Instructions

  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside
  • Place the chocolate in a microwave safe bowl and heat for 30 seconds at a time on high, stirring between each round to prevent chocolate from burning
  • If using white chocolate, add 2-3 drops of food coloring and stir until incorporated
  • Pour melted chocolate onto the baking sheet and spread with a rubber spatula into one even layer
  • Evenly sprinkle toppings of choice. This is where children (or adults!) can really have fun and get creative
  • Place bark in the refrigerator for about 45 minutes or until hardened
  • Once hardened, remove from refrigerator and transfer bark to a cutting board
  • Chop into bite-sized pieces
  • Store in an air-tight container in the refrigerator for up to one week. Enjoy!

]]> Halloween is just around the corner, so we hope you’ve already decided what you’re going to dress up as and have your scary costume and makeup at the ready. But you know, there’s more to Halloween than just dressing up and scaring other people! Halloween is also about rich cultural and religious traditions. And, well, most importantly, it’s about food. Halloween-themed snacks are there to help step up everyone’s trick-or-treat game, so here are three creative ideas for Halloween snacks you can make this year.

A Creepy Mix

The one offers a diverse selection of creepy homemade snacks you can prepare for Halloween. So, are you ready for this? First up, we have apple goblins. Then, we have frozen Kiwi ghosts and banana mummies. And last but not least, we have chocolate-dipped clementines. Honestly, even though they’re supposed to look creepy, the image mostly makes you want to have a bite, doesn’t it?

Classic Pumpkin

If you’re into classics, these Halloween-pumpkin-shaped apple pie biscuits are just for you. They’re also pretty healthy as they’re based mainly on natural ingredients. How cool is that?

Spooky Eyeballs

Okay, if you’re really into the creepy stuff, this one’s going to be your favorite snack to give out on this year’s trick or treat. Jelly eyeballs, ya’ll! We kid you not. Go ahead and try making them yourselves.
