Editor-Liked Halloween Sweet, at a Look:
Shaq A Licious XL Bitter Gummies
Amazon
I like gummies. I can simply eat an entire bag of Sour Patch Kids, Dealer Joe’s Bitter Scandinavian Swimmers, or Swedish Fish, a lot to the chagrin of my intestine micro organism. And just lately I’ve discovered a brand new favourite bitter gummy, peddled by none apart from Shaquille O’Neil. They’re referred to as Shaq-a-Licious XL Gummies, and if that does not hook you, I do not know what’s going to. It is a medley of inexperienced watermelon-shaped shamrocks, berry cacti, and pineapple-flavored diesel engines (not less than, I believe that is what they’re)—all nods to Shaq’s storied NBA profession. They’re the proper gummy texture (not too chewy, nor too mushy) and pack the proper pucker-worthy sourness. I’d say I would give these out for Halloween, however I in all probability will simply eat them myself, sorry kiddos. — Grace Kelly, commerce editor
Nerds Sweet
Amazon
Nerds are an elite sweet. I will eat common Nerds proper from the field, however Nerds rope candy is the second-best iteration, in my view. The chewy rope is completely coated with the tiny, crunchy sugar balls. I am actually munching on one as I kind this. — Riddley Gemperlein-Schirm, affiliate editorial director

I like selection and this bag of Tony’s Chocolonely assorted milk chocolate items affords six enjoyable flavors, together with pretzel toffee (my favourite), honey almond nougat, caramel sea salt, and others.

Katjes Salzige Heringe

I haven’t got an enormous candy tooth, however cowl a bit of sweet in a mind-bending quantity of salt, and I am in. The true attract of these candies is that no person in my home steals them from me. — Rochelle
Oliver’s Sponge Sweet
Amazon
Oliver’s is the sweet retailer in my hometown. If something about Western New York, it is dwelling to sponge sweet, which is sort of like an airier honeycomb coated in chocolate. This model from Oliver’s is fantastic. Rising up, the trick-or-treating home to hit belonged to the house owners of Oliver’s as a result of they gave out their full-size chocolate bars. For those who’re ever close to Buffalo, NY, I extremely advocate stopping by the store. — Riddley
Theo Darkish Chocolate Peanut Butter Cups
Amazon
I like nearly each model of peanut butter cup I’ve ever tried, together with the outdated standby, Reeses, however Theo’s dark chocolate peanut butter cups are my absolute favourite. As you’d count on from a chocolatier, the precise chocolate is superb high quality, however these even have a extremely good peanut butter filling that is creamy, not overly candy, and has simply the correct quantity of salt. — Megan O. Steintrager, affiliate editorial director
E. Frutti Gummi Sweet Pizza

These tiny little gummy pizzas immediately convey me again to being a child, leaving the library with my little sister, and stopping on the nook retailer throughout the road earlier than strolling dwelling for lunch through the summer season. They’re so cute and so nostalgic! Plus, who does not love meals formed like different meals? — Amanda Suarez, affiliate visuals director
Sweet Corn Pumpkins

Go forward. Hate all you need, however SOMEONE has to like this timeless right-of-passage Halloween sweet! (I do know our government editorial director, Tess, agrees with me!) I truly favor the sweet pumpkins over the sweet corn as a result of I like how there’s extra floor space for my enamel to sink into. They’re barely waxy and I like them. So go forward and hate all you need, that simply leaves extra for me. — Leah Colins, senior culinary editor
