The Ultimate Guide to Halloween Sweets That Sell Themselves
Posted on: 17/09/2025
Halloween sweets are not simply sugar in costumes; they are the lifeblood of October. They keep shop tills ringing, bring flair to every haunted house gathering, and ensure children march from door to door like sugar-fuelled trick-or-treating armies. At Monmore Confectionery — the family business trusted since 1989 to supply the nation’s favourite wholesale sweets — we know that success in spooky season belongs to those who prepare. Which is why we encourage retailers, event organisers, and parents with foresight to sign up to our newsletter. It’s where you’ll discover exclusive offers, stocking tips that save you money, and advance warning of the products flying fastest out of our warehouses.
Why Halloween Sweets Are Essential
Every October, demand for sweets surges. Retailers need shelves that groan with colourful bags ready to vanish in hours. Party hosts want eye-catching treats that make a buffet table irresistible. Parents handing out snacks need bite-sized packs that win smiles and avoid the shame of being “the house that gave out fruit.” Done right, Halloween sweets are not an expense; they’re an investment in memories, goodwill, and repeat customers.
The Hero of the Season: Halloween Mix
Let’s begin with the undisputed star: the Halloween Mix 1kg. A riotous blend of chewy and fizzy favourites dressed for the season, it’s the product that simply refuses to stay on shelves. Retailers order pallets, party organisers grab cases, and parents trust it to deliver joy at the doorstep. If you stock just one sweet for Halloween, this should be it. Without it, you might as well host a horror marathon without a single ghost.
Animal Mix – A Wild Treat for Spooky Nights
A good Halloween spread thrives on variety, and the Animal Mix 1kg delivers in style. Snakes, crocodiles, and other fizzy critters tumble out of each bag. At just £3.99 Ex VAT, it’s the bargain that gives you roaring returns whether you’re filling pick n mix bins or handing them out at a themed party. They may not snarl, but they certainly fly off shelves.
Barratt Milk Teeth – Sweet Nostalgia With Bite
Halloween without teeth? Inconceivable. Barratt Milk Teeth are the pink-and-white gums that generations have loved. Vanilla and strawberry notes wrapped up in a nostalgic grin — they work because they appeal to both adults who remember them and children discovering them anew. For the classics that never fade, explore the wider Barratt Sweets range, still selling strong after all these years.
Blue Mix – Not Spooky, But a Bestseller
Blue may not scream Halloween, but it certainly shouts sales. Our Blue Mix 1kg has become a bestseller precisely because children are magnetised by its bright, fizzy colours. At £3.25 Ex VAT, it’s the bargain that breaks the seasonal rules yet guarantees tills ringing. Proof, if ever you needed it, that the brightest colours command the biggest sales.
Candy Castle Crew Mutations Venom Gunk – A Messy Marvel
Halloween is theatre, and Venom Gunk plays the villain perfectly. Sour blue raspberry gel candy in lurid tubes, vegan-friendly, and irresistibly messy — the kind of product that makes teenagers grin and parents groan. It’s also the perfect addition to your Vegan Sweets range, tapping into the demand for novelty without compromise.
Skull Sweets – Creepy, Colourful, and Always a Hit
Nothing embodies Halloween quite like a skull. Our Skull Sweets collection sells because it’s fun, creepy, and brilliantly versatile. The standout is the Candycrave Skull Crusher Mix Tub, 600g of fizzy jelly skulls in tangy flavours. Vegan-friendly, resealable, and frighteningly popular. If tubs are your go-to (and let’s be honest, they always work), you’ll want to browse our full sweet tubs collection.
Teeth & Lips – Trick-or-Treat Essentials
Some packs are designed for generosity, and the Teeth & Lips 140g bag is exactly that. Affordable, perfectly portioned, and instantly recognisable, it’s the kind of hand-out that makes trick-or-treaters beam and parents nod approvingly. For retailers, they’re an easy win at the till point.
Trolli Pop Eye Tubs – Viral Legends
If you’ve scrolled TikTok in the last year, you’ve seen them: Trolli Pop Eye Tubs. Eyeball-shaped gummies that ooze novelty, chewed and squished by millions of gleeful kids online. They’ve become a sensation, securing their place in the broader Trolli Sweets family. Retailers who stock them don’t just sell sweets; they sell entertainment.
The Origins of Halloween Sweets
Trick-or-treating wasn’t always about sweets. Once upon a time, children were given nuts, fruit, and homemade cakes. But as confectionery giants spotted the opportunity, wrapped sweets became the standard. They were safer, easier to distribute, and irresistibly marketed. Today, sweets are as vital to Halloween as costumes, pumpkins, or haunted playlists.
Retailers, Hosts, and Parents – All Covered
- Retailers need tubs, bulk bags, and novelty formats that guarantee fast sales.
- Hosts want variety and spectacle — sweets that look as good as they taste.
- Parents need affordable packs for trick-or-treating that won’t break the bank.
At Monmore Confectionery, we’ve tailored our range to tick all these boxes. From kilo bags to mini pre-packs, everyone leaves stocked and smiling.
The TikTok Effect
Social media drives modern demand. Products like Trolli Pop Eyes or Venom Gunk can become viral sensations overnight. Shops that stock ahead of the curve cash in, while those who hesitate lose out. Our newsletter gives subscribers the inside track on which products are about to go stratospheric, ensuring you ride the sugar wave rather than miss it.
Dietary Options – Inclusivity Matters
Halloween has to be for everyone. That’s why our ranges cover Vegan Sweets, Halal choices, and gluten-free favourites. It’s not only the right thing to do; it makes commercial sense. Families and schools actively seek suppliers who can cater to all, and Monmore ensures no one is left out of the fun.
Newsletter – Your Competitive Edge
