Halloween glorifies the sugary goodness of candies, pastries, pies and more. (Maybe that’s why the jack-o’-lantern is missing so many teeth!) Among the sweets vying for attention, a few goodies that stand out as clear winners — especially when you’re trying to plan a Halloween party. Thematic, portable, non-messy and widely appealing, these seven treats will perfect your Halloween party. Explore our spook-tacular refreshment ideas for your next Halloween party!
Wail mix
Make your own “wail” mix (aka trail mix) with peanut butter candies, yogurt pretzels, candy corn, chocolate-covered raisins and more. Or set up a customizable “build your own” trail mix bar to keep allergens, like nuts, separate from the other ingredients. Make sure to include ladles for candy — no claws, tentacles or hairy mitts in the bowls, please! If this treat appeals to your sweet tooth, try warming Gimme Candy in your Scentsy Warmer.
Vampire bites
Bite this treat before it bites you! Dollops of raspberry jam coated in dark chocolate make a simple yet elegant treat, befitting a vampire. Try this recipe from Clean & Delicious — then try our Black Raspberry Vanilla fragrance.
Pumpkin head hand pies
It’s a small taste of the seasonal icon! Follow this recipe from The Country Cook, which uses a store-bought crust to simplify matters. If you like this treat, explore our Brown Butter Pumpkin or Pumpkin Roll fragrances.
Mummy pretzel rods
Dip and drizzle pretzel rods with white chocolate (adding candy eyes to be extra spooky) with this recipe from The Pioneer Woman. If you have a weakness for all things chocolate, take a whiff of Mochadoodle.
Ghost cocoa
Regular cocoa is hands-down excellent, but this ghostly drink is shockingly delicious. Use this recipe from Celebrating Sweets — and if you decide this beverage is to die for, enjoy a Very Vanilla or Vanilla Bean Buttercream Scentsy Bar.
Cinnamon cyclops donuts
Experience the luxury of a piping-hot donut at home — without a cauldron of boiling oil. Use a donut pan to bake your own treats using this recipe from Food Network. Recreate the bakery atmosphere with our Apple & Cinnamon Sticks fragrance.
Batwing brookies
Brownies, meet cookies. Combine the fudginess of a tray bake with the straightforward sweetness of a cookie for the ultimate dessert! Take inspiration from this post on allrecipes. To get a sugar rush without turning on your oven, try warming Make Me Snicker(doodle).
