15 Popular Halloween Candies that are Dairy Free

If you recently found out you or your kiddos have to be dairy free you might be a little lost. Luckily, Halloween doesn’t have to be over. Here’s a list of some classic trick or treating candies that do not contain any dairy. Bonus, I’ve also noted which ones do not contain gluten.

*Common Sense Disclaimer* As always with product lists like this, I want to remind you that my list should only be a jumping-off point. While I did not see any dairy ingredients in any of these products I always advise you to check the ingredients label yourself, especially if you need to avoid cross-contamination.


Unfortunately when you go dairy free the typical chocolate candy bars are a loss. But luckily there are so many dairy free candy options that are still very popular for Halloween. Things like Starburst, Air Heads, and even Skittles are all naturally dairy free. Whether you’re buying candy to pass out on Halloween or want to have some options at home for yourself or your kiddos, this list has something for everyone.
