Non Candy Halloween Treats

October 3, 2022 By Jamie Dorobek Leave a Comment

I’m not going to lie, I love candy. Dark chocolate, Almond Joys, and Sour Patch Kids to be exact. As much as I love candy, I still don’t need 3 pillow cases full of the sweet stuff after multiple rounds of Halloween parties. My kids love the non candy Halloween treats too! Mummified raisin boxes and string cheese ghosts are healthy and fun. I put together a list of 21 non candy Halloween treats that are perfect for school parties, trunk or treats, or handing out to trick or treaters.

Healthy Halloween Treats

1. Mummy Raisin Boxes

My 3 year old daughter loves little boxes of raisins. Part of the fun, at least for her, is the tiny box. When she’s done with her treat, she finds more treasures to hide inside the box. Mummify the box with masking tape and google eyes for a Halloween vibe. Easy peasy!

Again, mummify the pouch with masking tape and add eyes. That apple sauce pouch just got a spooky makeover.
