Trick or treat? Give me something good to eat! 

Though the classic Halloween rhyme has countless versions, they all clamor for the same thing: delicious treats! Halloween may be a spooky holiday of mischief and fright, but there’s a sweet side to it—literally, in overflowing goodie bags of chocolates, candies, and sweets galore. These treats are a big expectation every Halloween. For many, it’s the very reason that they look forward to the holiday.

Most trick-or-treaters are already happy to fill their pumpkins and cauldrons with anything and everything sweet. If you truly want to impress, however—make your picks from this list of wickedly good treats. This thoughtful selection of Halloween goodies is perfect for passing trick-or-treaters, party favors at spooky, costume get-togethers, or as your own personal candy bowl filler.

A thrilling taste

Halloween is a fun holiday to step out of your everyday self and try something different—why not extend that to your trick or treat candy? Explore new, interesting flavors to mix it up from your sweet tooth’s usual indulgences. 

  • CMV Txokolat: Velvety chocolate bars with fresh and luxurious inclusions like Salt & Pepper, Pomelo, and Mango & Cashew
  • Nobel Ore no Milk Candies: Candies with a uniquely Japanese—specifically, Hokkaido—twist, featuring distinct flavors like Hokkaido Melon and Hokkaido Azuki Beans. 

Eye candy

Eye candy that looks as good as it tastes—which arguably makes it taste even better. Just as dressed up as Halloween’s costumed celebrants, these sweet treats’ bare bold packagings that only fuel the holiday’s wildly colorful and exuberant flare.

  • Tony’s Chocolonely: Chunky chocolates with a purpose, creating a rainbow with their simple yet fun, solid-colored design.
  • Nobel Super Candies: Intensely flavored candies decorated with retro illustrations that are a creative throwback to comic book classics.

Home sweet home

Sometimes the best things in life can be found right at home, and homegrown Auro Chocolate has it all. This local star creates rich, smooth chocolates in exciting flavors such as Calamansi Cheesecake and Cashew Dulce, without compromising on beloved classics like good old Milk Chocolate. These exquisite sweets also shine in their vibrant packagings, which are proudly embellished with modern illustrations of traditional Filipino elements.

Faraway favorites

We’ve touched on local goodies, now let’s look abroad for treats and flavors that other countries adore. The gourmet bonbons by Bombones Valcorchero offer an exquisite taste of Spain. Their Karykas Collection features chocolate-coated figs in exotic flavors such as salted caramel and dulce de leche, matcha and pistachio, Greek yogurt, peanut with cocoa, and ruby with Himalayan salt. In another rich collection, delicate cherries covered in dark, white, and ruby chocolate star in Capricho del Valle del Jerte.
