When you or someone you love has a food allergy, you learn quickly how to navigate all the twists and turns of the holiday season. One thing that never really gets easier is having a trick-or-treater with a special diet, but we hope that this list can help.

All of the candies below are free from wheat, milk, eggs, soy, sesame, peanuts, tree nuts, fish, and shellfish.

Share this list with your neighbors, or use it yourself to plan your party and fill your candy bowl. Either way, we wish everyone a safe, fun, and spook-tacular Halloween filled with lots of these yummy treats!
