We are only weeks away from one of the best holidays, and I know for a fact there are already a million sugar temptations waiting around every corner. Candy is the literal devil this time of year. It’s. EVERYWHERE. Sugar is the hardest thing to stay away from!

I get it.

But, as always, there is hope. Try these out, and feel festive without feeling the guilt of our typical Halloween favorites:

Dark Chocolate Milkshake – Dark chocolate. It is one of the easiest things for me to eat a ton of during this time of year, and it’s easy for me to play it off (…after eating about 10 dark chocolate Reese’s Cups) and consider it a decent snack. I know I’m not the only one, right? This milkshake helps cure the craving without compromising calories!

Caramel Apples – These teeth-sticking fall favorites are even better without all the worry of the sugary caramel. Dip in your favorite toppings: coconut, pecans, sprinkles – go crazy.

Candy Corn Cocktail – Fruit cocktail, that is. A little different from the beloved triangle-shaped candies, but not a bad substitution at all.

Granny Smith Smoothie – Sour and sweet and just as good as some of our favorite sweet and sour Halloween combos.

Rice Krispie Treats – Snap. Crackle. POPPIN’.

Pumpkin Pie Bites – Last but never least, the best flavor of the season! These are a must for any pumpkin fan; keep them in the fridge and grab as a snack without worry.
