What Are Good Halloween Snacks?

Good Halloween snacks are ones that look festive, are easy to eat (finger-friendly), and—above all else—are tasty! And what better way to make a Halloween snack even more delicious than by enhancing it with classic candies like M&M’s and SNICKERS?

What Snacks Should You Bring to a Halloween Party?

Choose snacks that travel well and don’t degrade quickly. Think cookies, bars, party mixes, or anything that can sit out without melting or getting soggy. Bringing something simple like a bucket full of SNICKERS Bars is also a great choice (and it’ll make you very popular at the party!).

What Are Some Easy Last-Minute Halloween Snacks?

A great easy, last-minute Halloween snack you can make is SNICKERS Cinnamon Spice Party Mix. It’s quick (about 15 minutes) and uses items you may already have like pretzels and cereal. If you don’t want to deal with prep time, a simple jar of Halloween candy like SKITTLES Shriekers is a good option, too!

What Halloween Snacks Work Well for School Parties?

Go with items that are pre-portioned, nut-safe (double-check your ingredients!), and low mess. Things like decorated cookies (M&M’s Cookies & Screams Skulls), mini whoopie pies (M&M’s Sweet and Cheesy Stuffed Whoopie Pies), and party mix (SNICKERS Cinnamon Spice Party Mix) without raw meat or dairy issues are great picks.

What Are Good Halloween Finger Foods for Adults?

Adults often enjoy bolder, more complex flavors. Treats like chocolate-covered chips with bacon, spiced snack mixes featuring savory and sweet combos, or items incorporating premium chocolate (like DOVE) go over well.

Try out some fun garnishes like plastic spiders, rubber bats, or even edible decorations like candy corn, crushed chocolate, or Halloween-themed sprinkles.
