Healthier Halloween Treats
You'll feel good about snacking on these Halloween sweets.
FabrikaCr
Halloween is the time to "Treat Yo Self" but sometimes you want to do it with a little less sugar and a few better-for-you ingredients. Better-for-you candy, and chocolate bars have come a long way and before you assume they’ll taste disgusting, think again. Here are ten great picks that are worthy of rivaling their competitors and standing on their own.
Hu Mini Bars
Hu chocolate takes out all the yuck that you may find in other chocolate bars like emulsifiers, sugar alcohols, and palm oil and instead just gives you pure delicious chocolate. Perfect for Halloween is the newly launched snack size bars, in salty dark or milk chocolate.
Smart Sweets
Replicas of your favorite gummy flavors — peach rings, gummy cola bottles, sour watermelon — but with less sugar, plant based and all natural flavors. The newly reformulated candy no longer sticks in your teeth like other gummy bears do!
YumEarth Halloween Variety Box
The great thing about Yum Earth is it’s a brand safe for most, free of the nine major allergens, free of artificial dyes and colors. They’re still delicious though, offering their versions of popular candy. The Halloween variety pack comes with gummy fruits, lollipops and chewy candy bites.
Unreal Dark Chocolate Coconut Bars
Chocolate and coconut make a lovely pair, and these Unreal bars only have three grams of sugar. There’s no sugar alcohol substitutes, or any corn syrup used, simply less sugar. It’s the perfect treat to grab when you just need a little something sweet.
Skinny Dipped Dark Chocolate Caramel Bites
These chocolate squares may be oozing with caramel, but they aren’t full of ingredients like palm oil and only have two sugars per square. The fact that it’s a mom and daughter operation makes it even sweeter.
Blobs
It’s hard to decide what’s the most fun about this candy: the name, the shape, or the fun flavors. Orange-peach, pomegranate-apple, and pineapple-passionfruit "blobs" taste just like your typical gummies with 12 grams of fiber, if you need to keep things moving!
ChocXo
Peanut butter cups may have made the "cup" shape popular, but ChocXo has taken it to the next level in an organic, low sugar kind of way. Choose from peanut butter or almond cups, cookies and cream and coconut for a fun twist on your typical cups.
Behave Gummies and Sour Gummies
All the fun gummy shape, taste, and texture with only 1-3 grams of sugar, depending on the bag. This variety pack gives you both sour and sweet stars and bears to check out. Like other lower sugar gummies, these guys pack 19 grams of fiber per bag, so if you have sensitivity, keep that in mind. Raspberry, pineapple, and apple are the flavors of the stars, while the gummy bears (both sweet and sour) come in watermelon, mango, and lychee.
Honey Mama’s Chocolate Bars
These cocoa truffle bars are deliciously indulgent while also being dairy free, gluten free, soy free, and containing no refined sugar. You’ll want to keep these in the fridge, but a little goes a long way for a special treat that comes in fun flavor combinations like lavender rose and chocolate cake.
Lovo Oat Milk Chocolate Bars
If dairy doesn’t sit well and oat milk is more your jam, these Swiss-made oat milk chocolate bars are creamy and dairy free. As a bonus, the brand cares deeply about the environment and supports the Rainforest alliance and MyClimate that helps inform organizations about climate and sustainability.
