Halloween is this weekend and although there is really no such thing as “healthy” candy, there are some healthier alternatives out there. It’s important to treat yourself and indulge but sometimes the generic candy we grew up eating tastes amazing going down but leaves you feeling sick. When you don’t eat much refined sugars, the body tends to send out a warning signal telling us it doesn’t like what we just ate! Luckily, we have done the research, tried it all and are sharing some of the candy we feel good about recommending (in moderation). Remember moderation is key, even when eating better alternatives, it’s important to understand that these suggestions are still processed and still contain high amounts of sugars, even if the content of those sugars are better. 

UnReal Treats

The name says it all, these are unreal! You won’t even believe your taste buds; these delicious cups and candies taste incredible and the ingredients are pretty darn good! We especially love the coconut bars, almond butter quinoa cups and chocolate almond gems. The colors mimic all the fun colors we love to see in candy but it’s done with spirulina… very GLW approved! 

Smart Sweets

I mean of course we had to add Smart Sweets to this list. Ever since this brand hit the market, they’re loved by health enthusiasts everywhere. Smart Sweets makes all kinds of gummies, from sour gummies to peach rings, Swedish fish and most recently fruit chews. It’s important to remember that although the calorie contents are low, these are still processed snacks. 

Yum Earth Candy

We love this brand for their lollipops and gummies. The lollipop flavors are amazing, mango is a big favorite and you won’t even know you’re having a healthier alternative product. They have added a bunch of new goodies to their range as well! 

Little Secrets Treats

This brand makes delicious little dark chocolate bites filled with mint, coconut to name a few. They also make wafers that are delicious, the ingredients are pretty clean and the taste is next level! 

Eating Evolved

Eating Evolved has been a staple in KG’s pantry for years. The coconut butter cups are her personal favorite, but they make all different types of cups and delicious dark chocolate bars as well. The ingredients used are all super clean and not processed. 

Wholesome

Wholesome is a brand that makes a lot of different things and more recently they started making gummies of all varieties and they are amazing. If you like squishy, softer textured gummies you will love this brand! We especially love their cinnamon bears! 

Although we are posting this for some healthier Halloween inspiration, these candy brands can be used as a guide for a healthier alternative all year long!
