IT’S PARTY TIME. SHOULD YOU GET UNIQUE HALLOWEEN TREATS OR NOSTALGIC TRICK OR TREAT CANDY?
Planning any kind of party can be difficult, but a Halloween party? It has an extra layer because people crave their beloved trick-or-treat candy. But, we’ve come a long way from candy corn and KitKat’s. Today’s elevated Halloween treats — think Halloween cupcakes, themed brownies, pumpkin-spiced baked goods — bring sophistication to those craving the most fun flavors. Luckily, you can satisfy everyone. Both nostalgic snacks and gourmet treats can have a place at your Halloween buffet.
A combination of nostalgic treats and gourmet desserts brings a wow-factor to your Halloween soiree
Here’s the problem, though. Nobody wants to buy Halloween candy and then spend another few hours baking to get fancy cakes and cupcakes. In the United States, Halloween candy sales are more than $3 billion annually — but gourmet treats bought online and delivered to your home is a growing market. So why not have both the nostalgic candy and the fancy treats by putting out bowls of chocolate and candy corn, but having insta-worthy desserts delivered? It saves you time and satisfies everyone.
