10 Allergen-free Halloween Candy Alternatives
Looking for allergen-free Halloween candy options? Stop looking – we have you covered! Check out our 10 allergen-free treat suggestions for this holiday.
Well another Halloween is approaching fast and while everybody around you loves this spooky and fun holiday, you are always left out with getting stickers in your jack-o-lantern bucket. Allergen-free candies are not as common as the usual sweets. Thankfully, awareness is growing and with it, an explosion of dairy-free, gluten-free, nut-free (and more) choices. We’ve considered a number of options and we’re delighted to see bears, caramels, and even fish included here. We must add that while the following treats labelled as allergen-free, this does not necessarily mean they exclude all allergens. You must remain vigilant and always consult the labels for specific allergies.
Without further delay, in alphabetical order, we give you our 10 Allergen Free Halloween Options:
