I’ve compiled this list of safe gluten-free Halloween candy. Remember to ALWAYS check labels and when in doubt, contact the manufacturer or just don’t eat it (it’s not good for you anyway!).

Please be reminded that candy labels change from year to year – so always use extreme caution before eating any Halloween candy.

2017 UPDATE:  Nima Sensor has tested 23 of the most popular Halloween candies and unfortunately FOUND GLUTEN in several of them. You can download the guide on the Nima Sensor website or click the link below for immediate access. Nima Approved candies are highlighted below in BOLDFACE.

Important Gluten-Free Halloween Candy Reminder:

Remember to always be extra cautious before eating Halloween candy. Much of it is manufactured in alternative factories to meet high demand. This means you must double check if the mini-sized treats or specially packaged Halloween items are gluten-free before consuming! Don’t rely on prior knowledge as things can change for holiday manufacturing runs.

Even better, purchase organic, better for you gluten-free Halloween candy that is certified gluten-free (read my post about healthy and gluten-free Halloween candy alternatives) or donate your Halloween candy to our troops — who needs all that yucky sugar anyway!?!

Happy Halloween!
