Halloween is full of candy and treats. These easy Halloween treat ideas are on the healthier side and are still delicious and perfect for kids and adults!
Halloween will be here before we know it! As a kid with a major sweet tooth, that loved to play dress-up, I always loved Halloween.
My brother and I, many years ago. Weren’t we cute?!
Let’s be honest, I still have a sweet tooth and I still enjoy playing dress-up!
I dressed as Minnie Mouse one year for Halloween. Don’t you love my crocheted ears?!
One thing that has changed after all of these years is I’m better at listening to my mom and I make better food choices. She tried to get us to stick to healthier treats before it was cool. But let’s be honest, what kid is really thinking about those kinds of things?
Now I generally try to stick to whole foods and not as much sugar. But Halloween is a time we all want treats and these easy Halloween treat ideas use whole foods and aren’t as sweet. It’s a perfect balance. And you can still enjoy the candy just maybe a little less of that and more of these treats.
And if you are looking for natural Halloween candy that is free of dyes, artificial flavors, or even organic, check out the Natural Candy Store. It’s my favorite place to buy candy. They also have a great selection of allergy-friendly candy.
Amazon now carries a fair amount of natural Halloween candy as well. These are some of my favorites.

Love this! Only in the last few years have I really understood how many bad ingredients are in the foods we eat. This is such a great post to show other alternatives during this season.
Lisa Sharp
The options really continue to grow as we learn more about the artificial ingredients. I’ve found the natural stuff is often far better in taste and quality than the conventional stuff. 🙂
Deanna
I love that picture of you and Chris. Ha! You had fallen asleep in the car and then were a little giddy with excitement.
Lisa Sharp
I remember that Halloween. I remember being very excited to be a clown and really loving the wig.
