Gluten free Halloween Candy



It's Halloween time, here comes the candy!
This is the just the begining of a long season (ending with Valentine's day) where candy is available everywhere you turn. We all know that candy isn't good for you, that being said it's hard as hell to resist. I put together a brief collection of popular halloween candy so the next time you pass that bowl of goodies at your office you won't have to wonder, "Is that gluten-free?" I will say that many of these products are produced in facilities that also produce products that contain gluten, so proceed with caution. Being the chocolate lover that I am I usually stick with a few safe ones (for me): Hershey bars and kisses, Reese's peanut butter cups, and Snickers. (remember to always check the ingredients on the label as they sometimes change.)

Thank you! I couldn't find anywhere if Raisinets were gluten-free or not because there are varied results about that, but this gives me hope that they might be! I'll keep checking, but thank you anyways!

What do we know about Jelly Beans? I love them, in and out of season and have been eating them because I havn't been able to find anything saying I shouldn't. Not the best approach maybe, but I'm new to this. If anyone is aware of any (or all) brands that are good, I'd love to hear it.

Starburst Jelly beans are supposed to be gluten-free. I have eaten them since being diagnosed and was ok.

I know that Private Selection brand (found at Kroger) are Gluten Free. It's labeled on the package. In fact, Kroger has a large selection of Gluten Free products across the board but nearly all are located in the health food section.

Snickers are not gluten free! it is made in a factory where other wheat products are made and says on the label - may conatin wheat! there is a high chance of cross contamination with snickers. I am not sure about the others, but read the labels, they now disclose if wheat is handled in the same facility.

According to the Hershey's website Reese' peanut butter cups are gluten free, but the pieces are not.

such a shame, just bought a pack as a surprise for my son. I am glad I checked before giving it to him.
