If you are in need of hearing what Halloween candy to get while it is on sale, then this is just your luck! The top Halloween candy to try this Halloween season is right here.
With Halloween approaching, candy is on everyone’s mind. Nothing sounds better than biting into a Twix candy bar while watching a scary movie, or having a few starbursts while being with your friends. However, some candies don’t get appreciated as much as they should, which is why I will be sharing the most underhanded and under-appreciated Halloween candies that I 100% recommend you try (or retry since you might have hated them as a child) this spooky season.
Here are 10 underrated Halloween candies to try this year:
10. Milk duds
You probably hated these as a kid. We were too scared to look inside the weird box (though honestly looking at it now the packaging is pretty cute and retro). However, these little boxes are actually filled with so much goodness that I would have never believed as a child to be true. These little chocolate caramel candy bites are absolutely everything you need for a quick sweet treat in your day.
9. take 5
Take 5 is quite possibly the best idea invented in candy history. One single bite contains chocolate, pretzels, peanut butter, caramel and peanut. It is heaven on a bar and so under-appreciated. This candy is delicious for any given moment or time. It’s the perfect combo of savory and sweet and what everyone needs in their life.
8. Caramel apple pops
Now you’ve possibly heard these or remember them from middle school when kids would sell them after school at the bus stop. Or maybe that was just my school. But these candies would never appear around Halloween, even though they are a fall staple. They take and combine two popular fall flavors, green apple and caramel, adding a delicious taste to your mouth. On top of that, if you ever want snacks to watch a show, but aren’t too hungry, as tested it takes about one 20 minute episode to finish an entire pop. This candy lasts a long time and is delicious, so it’s the best of both worlds.
7. good and plenty
Good and Plenty is never appreciated enough for no reason at all! If you’re a fan of licorice, you are about to fall in love with this candy. It’s a bit of licorice in a little pill shape which is the perfect amount you need if you just want a sweet treat. Even if you’re not a licorice fan, good and plenty is just the right amount to get you started on trying it and beginning your licorice loving journey.
6. heath
Heath bars are basically grandma candy. They also remind me of root beer for no reason. Both are only good sometimes and not well appreciated. But all together, if you do manage to bring up the courage to try one, it’s really not as bad as everyone says it is.
5. hershey’s cookies ‘n’ creme
Now, everyone knows and loves the classic Hershey’s chocolate for s’mores, as Halloween candy, or anything really. However, the cookies and cream Hershey’s flavor is the real winner. The regular Hershey’s tastes average, good in s’mores but it’s mediocre chocolate and candy at best. However, the Hershey’s Cookies ‘n’ Creme bars are so delicious. With the mix of cookie crumbs and white chocolate, it’s a Halloween staple and should be the classic.
4. 100 grand
100 grand is one of those under-appreciated candies. It sounds weird, but in reality, it’s a bar of chocolatey goodness. I wouldn’t recommend it for you if you’re allergic to nuts, but if you’re a fan then this candy is for you!
3. strawberry bon bons
I bet you didn’t even know that these existed. I didn’t until my best friend made me try one. It’s so small but filled with so much flavor. And you spend so much time sucking it that it burns more calories than consumed. So it’s a double win!
2. tootsie roll fruit
These candies are so underappreciated. They don’t look appealing to most people, however, once you try them you will understand why they are so good! My personal favorite has to be vanilla. The joy of the vanilla flavor in the chewy candy is something you never knew you had to experience, until you do.
1. almond joy
You probably hated it as a kid and called it a healthy candy. Good, because I did too until I matured and realized how good it is. The coconut and chocolate is such a nice, creamy blend you never knew you needed. And then a bite of nut mixed between it all, phenomenal. Almond joys are the best candy to exist, and no matter how much you may try to prove me wrong, my opinion will never change.
With that said, any and all Halloween candy is good. No matter which one you try, you cannot go wrong. But, if you do feel like being adventurous or finding a new favorite candy, then any of these are a safe bet. I mean with candy, you can never go wrong.
