I love Reese’s , Kit Kats or Twix on Halloween, or any day really!!
My favorite costume so far was pinocchio. It was amazing
My favorite candy is anything with the classic peanut butter and chocolate combo! Reese’s, Butterfingers, Peanut butter m&ms….! :)
It’s gotta be Kraft caramels, straight from the bag.
My fav costume I ever did was Tippy Hedrin from The Birds… it was painful to sew on all those fake birds, dipping their tiny beaks in blood, but boy it was a cool costume!
Reese’s and kit kats
Butterfingers!! Favorite costume – one year I was Queen of Hearts, son was Mad Hatter, other son was White Rabbit, and 3 year old granddaughter was Alice!
Gods. I think my favorite candies are the peanut butter m&ms. Completely addictive.
For Halloween this year the entire family is going to be Star Trek, so I am going as Beverly Crusher. So darn awesome (well, Beverly Crusher minus the awesome hair, because I don’t think I have time to buy or make a wig).
I like to dress up as Cleopatra. With the wig, snake arm band, gold, fancy make-up, it’s just so fun!
My favorite would be Kit Kats.
My favorite candy on Halloween is candy corn :)
My all time favorite costume was “Halloween of Years Past.” I took bits of costumes from every year (age 1-13) and compiled them until I looked like mayhem.
My fav Halloween candy is candy corn!! I love peanut butter cups too. :)
Twix bars. My best costume ever was Snow White (especially funny while I was expecting my 3rd child!)
The last few years I’ve painted my face in the dia de Los muertos skull and I’d wear a red rose behind my ear!
Favorite candy- I cannot resist Twix!
I look forward to my annual Blow Pop during Halloween. I also get all my child’s Tootsie Rolls when she goes through all her candy. :)
Reese’s
I love Twix!
Last year for Halloween I dressed up as Elphaba (a.k.a. the Wicked Witch of the West) from my favorite musical, Wicked. I had so much fun with getting the different parts of the costume, and getting to paint myself green! It was so much fun and I got such a great response from everyone who saw me. I lvdd every minute of it.
A spooktacular giveaway indeed thanks Bakerella and Chronicle :)! My fav costume would have to be a witch, obvious yes but still a classic!
Love Rolos!
I love Reese’s PB cups!
I love chocolate (any kind) for Halloween (or anytime of the year!!!). I always ask my kids for a piece of chocolate a day from their trick-or-treat stashes!! :)
Butterfingers have always been my favorite! Going to be Lily Munster this year!
Bite size chocolate candy!! tiny kitkats, tiny snickers, tiny everything!! its so cute! and i can go through the whole bag!
My favorite are caramel and Apple lolipops. If anyone does shipment to France ;-)
Milky Way
I haven’t dressed up for Halloween in years but some of my favorite costumes as a kid were the ones my best friend and I made/wore together: a pair of dice, the two halves of a “best friend” locket, etc. Fun times!
Sorry had to comment again because I messed up my email address the first time :(

Mellowcreme pumpkin candy!!!! I stalk the candy aisle until they appear.
Almond joys.
I like candy corn for how cute it is but also I like to eat it as it reminds me of the fun that Fall brought when I was a kid!
Best costume was the green and purple dinosaur outfit I made for my son when he was 5, it included quite a great tail, dinosaur feet and hand attachments…….he is now 30 but I still have it in the cedar closet in case any grandkids show up in our family one of these days.
:-)
My favorite Halloween candy: Smarties! I never think to purchase them any other time of year.
OMG, those new cakepops look adorable!!!!!!!!
One of my all time favorite costumes for Halloween is The Hatter from Alice in Wonderland!!! Since the Tim Burton’s version came out, I’ve done it a couple of times… I put a lot of effort in it and always get lots of compliments!! LOVE IT!
I’m known to have very sweet tooth so I love everything in Halloween xD
BESOS!!
My Favorite candy is caramels!!
My favorite candy is candy corn.
Cruella de Ville! Candy corn! MMM Halloween!!!
My favorite halloween candy by far is candy corn! Can’t be more classic than that.
My Favorite is basically anything with peanuts. My son is allergic so I have to go through all the candy and pick out the peanuts ones for myself…Darn ;)
Favorite costume is a witch because the possibilities are endless!
Peanut butter cups are my favorite!! :-)
give me anything chocolate!
Almond Joy bars
Last year I dressed up as Rosie the Riveter and it was so simple and cute I think it may be my new go-to Halloween costume.
And I absolutely love the fun size Almond Joys! My husband hates coconut, so we’re a perfect match!!
My favorite costumn was when I dressed as a lady who’s head had been cut off and was holding it in her hands. Won 3 contest that year!

My favorite candy are snickers … yum!
the UK still hasnt really “got” halloween…but zombie costume for sure :)
Kit Kat bars <3
I love Reese’s and York’s on Halloween! I also like to dress up in really random costumes…my personal favorite was, when I was eleven, I dressed up in a tshirt with a giant yellow foam smiley face cut out on the front and with this really tall smiley face tophat! It was really funny!
Does dressing up my kids count? I loved the year that my boys were Paul Bunyan and his blue ox, Babe. =)
My favorite costume is Olive Oyl, especially with my baby boy Ryan dressed up as Sweetpea! and I’m partial to mallowcreme pumpkins!!
Halloween is one of my favorite holidays, so that makes it a little tricky to pick my best costume. Maybe when I was in 3rd grade and my mom made me a Ziggy the Zebra Beanie Baby costume… it was awesome! I love all candy, but Twix and Candy Corn are my favorites :)
Congratulations on the book!
Oh i Hope i win this one because its my birthday when they announce the winner!!
I love Halloween it is my Favorite holiday!! and my favorite cake pops to make are actually Halloween themed and flavored ones!!!
My favorite costume is between Wendy from Peter Pan or the classic gothic vampire! My favorite candy is actually the sugary caramelly bulls eyes or candy corn!!! Thank you Bakerella!!
My favorite Halloween candy USED to be 3 Musketeers. But now that Cadbury has released the Creme Eggs for Halloween (Cadbury SCREAM Eggs), they are my favorite (they’re my favorite at Easter, too!)!
My favourite candy at Halloween is Reese’s peanut butter cups, I could eat a box if I had the chance :)
Hands down, favorite candy, Reese’s pumpkins.
I just like to dress up with a theme with my kids. Last year we were the Jellystone Park gang-Yogi, Boo Boo, a couple of campers with picnic baskets, and a 1 year old Ranger. My kids start brainstorming ideas months before Halloween, I love it!
Carmel flavor candy corn. Addictive!
I love Kit Kats!!! And Nips.
It’s hard to pick one costume….I have 2 full containers of costumes to pick from! But I love dressing up from head to toe in green and calling myself the Green Gringo!
Last year i dressed up in my School Chef uniform as a zombie version of Gordon Ramsey.
Love candy corn and caramel apples
I love to dress up as a wizard or a witch and my fave sweet for Halloween is definitely candy corn!

My favorite Halloween treats are Reese’s peanut butter pumpkins :)
I rarely dress up anymore, but I still eat all the candy I don’t give away…. So I only buy Twix, so I have the ones I like left over. :)
Growing up in the midwest, Halloween could be quite chilly some years so my family was always brainstorming warmer costumes that wouldn’t look out of place. My favorite was the fair godmother costume from Cinderella. Second runner up was Yertle the Turtle because I could stash all my candy in my shell!
I usually dress up as the green M &M to give away M & M’s for Halloween.
My favorite candy during Halloween (and year-round) is TWIX! :)
My favourite costume is Dracuuuula of course!! And I enjoy snikersss!!!!
My favorite costume to dress up in is my homemade Poison Ivy costume. But this year I’ve decided to go as Tina Belcher from Bob’s Burgers.

I’d like to wear a vampire costume; that way I could use some of the things I actually used everyday when I only dressed black with black makeup and black everything :P
Harry Potter characters are the big fave in our house ! And chocolate I can’t go past Cadbury & minstrels … Just pop them in. Thanks for the chance!
I absolutely love candy corn! I eat them by the handful.
While Halloween is getting bigger here in India, it was pretty non existent when I was growing up. Almost undoubtedly my favourite costume is a happy-scary witch! Must try riding the train in full garb :D
Also this needs to be said, such brilliant innovation, esp you cakepops!
So far my favorite Halloween costume I’ve ever done is San from Princess Monoke! It was so fun to create all the pieces and really make an intricate costume. And the funniest part was that the only shoes which matched the outfit ended up being from the kid’s section. X)
I’m a sucker for candy corn! I love it! Once the candy corn hit the store shelves, I know it’s Fall! ;-)
All-time favorite has to be Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups. It isn’t Halloween without them!
Reese’s PB cups are the best Halloween candy!
My favorite Halloween candy is the classic tootsie roll. I don’t really eat them the rest of the year, but my Halloween isn’t complete without a handful of them.
And my favorite costume is my Glinda the Good Witch costume that a friend made for me. So sparkly!
I love dressing up as fun storybook characters. Something to get the kids imaginations going!! And I always have a bag of kit kats nearby!!!

Last year I put my own personal twist on Darth Vader. I wore a black leotard, a black tutu, black gloves, a cape, and of course, a darth vader mask. I made my own “lightsaber” using a red pool noodle and silver and black tapes. I enjoyed this costume the most because I used a lot of the things I already owned, all other things were very affordable.
My favorite halloween candy is candy corn!
My husband & I usually do a “couples costume”. We’ve been pirates the past few years so this year I’m begging him to be Lord & Lady Grantham from Downtown Abbey! I’ve already found the costumes but haven’t quite “sold” him on the idea yet. There’s still time… :-)
Fave Halloween treat – smarties!!

Its hard to pick just one favorite when you love all them sweets!!
I really love candy corn, which I know is weird because it’s not that good. But I also love stealing all kinds of chocolate goodness from my son’s bag. :)
Some delicious Butterfingers!
As a kid I always loved dressing up as u.s. olympians!
I’d dress up as a candy cane!
I love the caramel apple suckers that only debut for the fall season!
For halloween has to be the candy corn and pumpkins- I think i like the pumpkins the best even though my husband says they taste the same I don’t think so.
I love candy corn and typically just throw on a witches hat!!
My favorite Halloween candy are the Reese’s peanut butter cup shaped bats!
My 10 year old’s favorite costume is little red riding hood.
I always loved the good ole candy corn and probably anything that encludes chocolate. ;-)
reese’s!
I don’t dress up for Halloween as much anymore, but one of my favorites was a bag of Jelly Belly jelly beans! (Clear trash bag for the candy ‘bag’, and small balloons for the jellybeans..complete with a twist tie and plastic “top” on a headband!)
I also love all any Halloween candy that involves chocolate; the exception being candy corn. :) It’s the Fun Sizes that get me every time!
I will never beat my costume from a couple of years ago when I went as Vicki, the robot daughter from Small Wonder.
I love anything chocolate, but my favorite “Halloween” candy are those mellowcreme pumpkins! They taste so much better than candy corn (even though they are essentially the same thing–right?), and they are SO CUTE!
Usually I’m all about chocolate, but I’ve also developed a love for caramel popcorn balls!
My favorite Halloween candy to eat is the Reese’s pumpkin shaped penut butter cup! The pumpkin shape allows more peanut butter therefore it’s exponentially better ;)
I like dressing up as a vampire. I can’t choose a favorite candy because I love them all!
kit kats :-)
Old School: Candy Corn!
My favorite candy at Halloween are those chewy peanut butter taffy pieces! You can’t get them at any other time of the year, yum!
I do love when my kids get Reese’s cups. I might “borrow” one or two of them!
Candy Corn! I’m a traditionalist. Plus it’s made with honey so it’s healthy, right? ;-)
Milkway!!
Kit Kats

I have a great pirate costume. (my wife would love this book!!!)
MY FAV COSTUME – WICKED WITCH!!!!
I’m a very clumsy person. Since I also work with children I made my own little miss whoops costume. The kids love it almost as much as I do.

So many great Halloween memories, but most of all CANDY!
Reeses Peanut butter cups!
I’m not great at dressing up, but I love candy corn and good quality caramels! They just aren’t the same the other times of the year.
Laura said…
Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups. Quite possibly the world’s most perfect food!!!
I always have to snitch a few twig or kit kat bars from my kids goodie bags!
My favorite Halloween costume was probably last year’s Pirate Queen. I had a long crimson skirt, black blouse & waist-cincher, a black hat with a silver skull & crossbones, my long, curly auburn wig, and my (plastic) cutlass by my side. The children where I work absolutely loved it and I was able to look attractive while still dressing modestly in front of a young audience.
I don’t dress up, but I used to make costumes for my oldest son when he was little. (Nobody cares if the seams aren’t exactly straight on a costume that will only be worn once!) I look forward to candy corn and candy pumpkins each year, but have usually had enough of them by the time Halloween is over.
My favorite costume is when my daughter dressed up as Dorothy from Wizard of Oz and my son was the cowardly lion!! And my favorite candy would be Reeces pb cups.
My favorite still from childhood would have to be Candy Corn..
candy corn
My fav Halloween candy is twix and kit-kats! Love them both cold! I haven’t dressed up in a few years, but the last couple of times I did, I wore the cutest Betty Rubble costume! My hair is black so I was able to fix it just like hers!
I love mini chocolates for Halloween: Reese’s peanut butter, Milky Way, etc. For non-chocolates, Smarties are my favorite!
Reese Peanut Butter Cups! So delicious!
I love candy corn and peanuts mixed together at Halloween. It is a definite favorite! :)
Reece’s Peanut Butter Cups out of the freezer. The absolute best!
Anything chocolate!
Halloween is the 1 time of the year I will indulge in Reece’s PB cups. Thank you!
It’s a tie between Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups and good old fashioned candy corn!
Reese’s Pieces, although I love the cups too!
Kit Kats…or Whoppers…or candy corn. Seriously…anything will work! :o)
Congrats on the new book!! My favorite candy to eat on Halloween (or anytime really) would be Twix candy bars. I love them!
M&M’S :D love them!!
I really love the flavored tootsie roll, orange, lemon, strawberry…
My favorite costume is Velma from Scooby Doo.
My fave are definitely those delicious candy corn pumpkins – and I think they only make them around this time of year! YUM!
My favorite candy of all time is Good ‘N Plenty !! Plus Halloween is my Birthday…so that makes it extra sweet!
My favorite is candy corn!!
Kit Kats all the way!!!
