Key Ingredient Resources
All of the recipes on this list are super cute and unique in their own way, but you will notice some similarities in how to achieve this. Most of these recipes use candy eyeballs and candy to help achieve their final look. Here is where you can find some of them:
- Candy Eyeballs - Candy eyeballs can usually be found in the baking section near the sprinkles. You can also find them online in many different sizes.
- Candy Corn - You can find candy corn year-round now, but it's most popular during Halloween and sticks around through Thanksgiving. Look for the Autumn mix for Thanksgiving-inspired colors!
- Thanksgiving Colored Candy (Reese's Pieces)- These little candies have Thanksgiving-inspired colors year-round and are the perfect addition to any treat for this holiday.
- Almond Bark (candy coating) - While more popular now, almond bark makes an appearance around Halloween in major grocery stores. You can also use candy melts found at craft stores or always look online, although it's usually more expensive there.
