Halloween isn’t all about the costumes and jack-o-lanterns. There is no better time to enjoy lots of limited-release snacks than Halloween. Since it’s a time to let loose and jump to the extreme, from cute and festive to spooky and absurd, Halloween is also a valid excuse to stock up on various snacks. Here are five spooky-themed snacks to satisfy your sweet tooth and get the Halloween vibe.
Pillsbury Shape Ghost Cookies
Pillsbury-shaped ghost cookies are one of our favorite Halloween-themed cookies. The reason is simple: Aside from their spooky shapes, we also love how they taste. These cookies just remind us that Pillsbury knows their onions when it comes to ready-to-bake cookies.
These sugar cookies will surely come in handy when Halloween arrives. If you’re worried about getting scared of your cookies, Pillsbury’s got you covered with these friendly-looking ghosts. There is also a variety with a jack-o’-lantern.
Jelly Belly Sour Gummi Pumpkins
What’s Halloween without something to make you pucker your lips in delight? In case you were wondering, we’re not talking about jelly beans at all. These Jelly Belly snacks add a full dose of sweetness to your Halloween candy bowl and are pumpkin-shaped.
They have a sweet orange flavor, and the sour crystal dustings take things up a notch with a sharp flavor. Although you might have come across Jelly Belly Sour Gummi Pumpkins only on the company’s website, they are now available in stores for about $9 this fall.
Welch’s Halloween Fruit Snacks
Is there anyone who doesn’t love fruit snacks? Both kids and adults love them. As usual, Welch’s has made a limited-release Halloween variety of fruit snacks. From their shapes to their taste, these Halloween fruit snacks make us wish every day was Halloween.
Welch’s have advanced their Halloween snack game as we can now explore more shapes. The fruit snacks for this year’s Halloween come in ghost, pumpkin, bat, castle, and witch shapes. The individually-packed snacks with mixed fruit flavors cost $9.99.
Cheetos Bag of Bones
From the name, you already know Cheetos means spooky in this year’s Halloween. The bag of bones is exactly what you think it is- a snack shaped like bones, Cheetos bones, though. What could be more Halloween-y than bones?!
Although they were initially white cheddar flavor, Cheetos has introduced the bag of bones in Flamin’ Hot. Come Halloween, we’ll all be assembling full Cheeto skeletons(and we’ll be eating them, eventually). Cheetos Bag of Bones cost under $4.
Williams-Sonoma Witch Finger Cookies
This is one of those Halloween snacks that are downright absurd- well, Halloween wouldn’t be complete without some ‘eerie’ factor. These Halloween-themed snacks from Williams-Sonoma are all shades of spooky; the name already tells you what you’re getting into.
The witch fingers, made with a vanilla sugar cookie and shaped like a bony finger, are green in color. To give the ultimate witch-finger look, the cookie has a red icing topping. These cookie fingers cost about $25.
