10. Hersheys Bar
While many would consider the Hersheys Bar a Halloween staple and a classic candy, it is boring. Just plain chocolate is a necessity for any Trick-or-Treater, but the plain bar does not deserve to be any higher.
9. Hershey Kisses
Hershey Kisses, although just plain chocolate like the bar, deserve a spot on the list for staying relevant and fun after many years. They are preferred to the bar due to the simple but fun design and how easy it is to get lost track eating these small chocolate treats.
8. Snickers Bar
Another classic Halloween night candy is the Snickers bar. Although not as popular as some chocolates higher up in the rankings, many enjoy the caramel and nut bar much more than any plain chocolate such as the previously ranked Hersheys products
7. Nerds
While many editions of Nerds have been released over the years, such as ropes, gummy clusters, and big chewy nerds, the classic Halloween pass out of the brand are the small boxes of the classics. Even though they are not a chocolate, many still love the classic tiny box in their Halloween sack.
6. Crunch Bar
The Crunch bar slots in at number 6. Although Nestle and Crunch does not have the recognition and brand power of others like Hershey, this bar is beloved by many and features a good crunch in every bite, making it much more appreciated than a plain chocolate bar. This candy is also very good refrigerated!
5. Starburst
Starburst is another Halloween classic that is plain and simple, yet very tasty. While the king sizes of any candy is always preferred, you will usually find these candies in small packages of two. The small chewy cube is packed with tons of fruity flavor and the most preferred colors are Pink and Yellow.
4. Skittles
Skittles, like Starbursts, pack a huge chewy and fruity taste while being tiny enough to lose track of how many you’ve been eating. The variety of flavors and satisfying break of the candy-coated tiny ball make it one of Halloween’s most beloved candies.
3. M&M’s
The tiny, candy-coated chocolate disks are beloved by many come Halloween time. Appearing in kid’s Halloween pails in all sizes and flavors. Fun size, normal size, and share size. You can also find variations such as peanut or peanut butter rather than the classic.
2. Sour Patch Kids
Sour Patch Kids are beloved by everyone, a perfect mix of sour and sweet that come in fun size or king size packaging. Like the tiny candies, a smile is guaranteed while eating these. While not number one, these take the crown for the most beloved non-chocolate candy, which is impressive.
- Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups
Sorry peanut allergens, but the Reese’s peanut butter cup has been voted the favorite candy by more states than any other and it seems like tradition for kids to receive more of these than any other candy on the 31st. These take the title for not only the most popular and beloved chocolate candy, but any candy. Reese’s can also be found as Reese’s Pieces, similar to an m&m but with a more Reese’s taste.
Happy Halloween and have a great time enjoying all of these candies no matter which is your number one!
