Gluten-Free Halloween Candy

Halloween is one week from TODAY! Regardless of whether you do anything to celebrate this holiday, you are probably buying candy of some sort. Whether it’s to hand out to trick or treaters, for your office, or even just to keep at home and enjoy (no judgment... who doesn’t love a good piece of candy once in a while?!). Are your kids going trick or treating? You’ll have to know precisely which candies are safe for them to keep, and which to toss or donate. These are the 10 gluten-free candies you are most likely find in a trick-or-treat bag.

Something to note: this applies to the original packaging and form only. Some variations may still be gluten-free, but anytime there are holiday versions, it’s not safe - for example, Reese’s are gluten-free, but Reese’s pumpkins are not!
