    Celiac.com 10/24/2014 - Here are ten recipes for make-at-home Halloween treats that are guaranteed to put smiles on the faces of your young ones, and help you to breath a sigh of gluten-free relief.
    The recipes are gluten-free, or easily modified to be gluten-free. Remember to double-check ingredients, such as caramel (I use Kraft caramels without any issues).
    Also, many of these recipes list ingredients that acre fat-free, sugar-free, low-fat, and/or low sugar. I always ignore such instructions and include full-fat, full-sugar alternatives, but prepare according to your own tastes.

    Celiac.com 10/27/2020 - We get a lot of questions about candy and chocolate, and one of the most common questions we get this time of year is: What Halloween candy is gluten-free?
    The good news is that there are hundreds of gluten-free candies and chocolates for Halloween and beyond. The bad news used to be that, even with all the great information these days, it can be hard to find good information, and comprehensive lists of gluten-free Halloween candy and chocolate. 
    The extra good news is that Celiac.com has made it easy with this master list of gluten-free candy and chocolate for Halloween, and all occasions.
