Confections suitable for Halloween trick-or-treating that exclude common allergenic ingredients represent a significant sector of the holiday market. These products are formulated without one or more of the top allergens, which typically include peanuts, tree nuts, milk, eggs, soy, wheat, fish, and shellfish. Examples range from fruit-based chews and hard candies to chocolate alternatives manufactured in dedicated allergen-free facilities.
The availability of these specialized treats allows children with food allergies to participate more safely and inclusively in Halloween traditions. This offers peace of mind for parents and caregivers who must carefully scrutinize ingredient labels. Furthermore, the development and increasing prevalence of such options reflect a growing awareness of food allergies and the need for accessible and inclusive products across various industries.
