The spookiest vegan Halloween treats to buy (updated Oct 2024)

When I was young Halloween meant mountains of sweets and chocolate, none of it vegan. But there are now so many vegan options, you can enjoy a vegan Halloween.

Halloween has always been about food. And the unhealthier the better. I always remember as a kid I’d scrape together a last-minute scary costume (because I was never really that interested in fancy dress) to walk around the estate with my friends, seeing how full I could get my Halloween-themed basket of choice. I’d then go back home and stuff as much of it into my gob as possible.

Now, I’m not condoning overeating, but this was the one night of the year when it was acceptable. And I loved it. Whilst I have left trick or treating behind, I do still love the change in season that is associated with Halloween. And with Autumn comes pumpkin.

So when coming up with this vegan Halloween treat blog I wanted to make sure it covered all ages and tastes. There is no need for anyone to miss out when they are vegan, whether they are a kid or an adult. So expect vegan sweets and chocolates fit for any spooky ghost or witch, as well as vegan-friendly pumpkin-based foods that will amaze guests at any Halloween-themed dinner party.
