Confections produced without peanuts or tree nuts are vital for individuals with allergies during the Halloween season. These sweets allow participation in traditional trick-or-treating activities without posing a significant health risk. Examples include certain hard candies, gummy candies, and chocolates manufactured in dedicated nut-free facilities.
The availability of safe confectionery options is increasingly important, reflecting growing awareness of food allergies. This increased availability fosters inclusivity and reduces anxiety for affected families. Historically, limited choices created barriers to participation, leading to feelings of isolation and exclusion from communal festivities.
