As Halloween has gone and past, the excitement of trick-or-treating and candy collecting has faded away. That doesn’t mean the candy collected has all been eaten, though. From chocolate bars to chewy treats, the variety is endless. In this tier list, I’ll be ranking popular Halloween candies, including the newcomer Feastables and classic Hershey’s, to see which ones stood out this spooky season. Of course, these are all my opinions, and you’re entitled to whatever you believe.
Though nostalgic, Tootsie Rolls can feel chewy and dense without delivering the flavor punch of other candies. They’re often seen as filler in Halloween bags, rather than a coveted treat.
A Halloween staple for some, candy corn is divisive. While its iconic shape is recognizable, many find its overly sweet and waxy texture off-putting. It’s often left untouched in candy bowls.
Light and fluffy with a chocolate coating, 3 Musketeers bars are fine but can be somewhat bland for those craving richer flavors. They’re a classic, but they may not be everyone’s top choice.
While Milky Way bars are enjoyable with their nougat and caramel filling, they can sometimes feel a bit too sweet compared to others. They’re decent but often overshadowed by more flavorful options.
These colorful candies offer a delightful crunch and come in various flavors, including classic milk chocolate, peanut, and crispy. M&M’s are perfect for sharing and snacking throughout the spooky season.
With its cookie crunch, caramel layer, and milk chocolate coating, Twix bars are a delightful combination. They’re great for those who enjoy a bit of texture along with their chocolate.
Hershey’s milk chocolate is a classic that evokes nostalgia for many. While it may not have the richness of some premium chocolates, its iconic flavor and versatility in various treats keep it firmly in the A tier. It’s perfect for s’mores, Halloween treats, or just snacking straight from the bag.
Packed with nougat, caramel, and peanuts, Snickers bars are a hearty treat that satisfies cravings. The combination of textures and flavors makes it a solid choice for Halloween bags.
With flavors like Milk Chocolate Crunch and Dark Chocolate, Feastables has quickly gained popularity. Not only are they delicious, but they also come with a fun twist thanks to MrBeast’s engaging branding. Their high-quality ingredients and unique flavor profiles make them a great addition to any Halloween stash!
The perfect combination of chocolate and creamy peanut butter, Reese’s is a Halloween favorite that never disappoints. Their balance of sweet and salty makes them irresistible, securing their spot at the top.
As you prepare for weeks of candy-devouring goodness, this tier list highlights the best—and not-so-great—candies to seek out during your trick-or-treating adventures. From the classic goodness of Reese’s and Snickers to the rising star Feastables and the nostalgic Hershey’s, there’s something for everyone to enjoy. So, grab your bags, unwrap the bars, and savor the favorite treats you received this Halloween.
