See’s Candies, founded in California by Mary See, have been making candies for over 90 years. Only the finest, freshest ingredients are used in making each recipe. No preservatives are added to their candy. I can’t believe it’s October already. Invites to Halloween parties are starting arrive and the girls are making plans with their friends. I’m always looking for festive gifts for teachers, host/ hostesses, friends, and families. I also love having treats for my daughters friends when they come for Halloween themed play dates. My family recently tried a few of See’s Candies seasonal Halloween treats perfect for those occasions and gifts. Below is a list of what we tried, gift ideas, and how to serve your See’s Candies:
Sour Bats (Nut Free):
These super sour bats will make you pucker. My girls loved them! Add a few to your child’s lunch for a yummy surprise or give a bag to their teacher!
Milk Chocolate Jack-O-Lanterns:
These rich, creamy, milk chocolate jack-o-lanterns are delicious! Tape one into a handmade card for friends, family or teachers for a sweet Halloween touch! See allergen information at the end before giving to a child with nut allergies. Sold as a box of 6.
Chocolate Mashmallow Jack-O-Lanterns:
My youngest doesn’t like chocolate with the exception of these chocolate marshmallow jack-o-lanterns. They are delicious but a little big so we cut them into 1/4’s and put the leftovers into a plastic bag for later. Attach to a card or hand out to friends or family. See allergen information at the end before giving to a child with nut allergies. Sold as a box of 6.
Pumpkin Spice Lollypops (Nut Free):
I did not personally try these because my girls insisted the were only for them. They loved them and wanted to save them for their Halloween play date with friends! I thought it would be cute to color the sticks and add jack-o-lantern eyes and a mouth to the wrapper.
I get excited for fall because I love everything pumpkin spice. These truffles are rich, creamy, and full of my favorite pumpkin spice flavor. Great to include at a dessert table at a Halloween party or share a box with the host/hostess of a party you are attending. The pumpkin spice truffles are so delicious, I will be bringing a box to Thanksgiving as well! Sold in a box of 12!
Having a Halloween party or play date? Here are a few ideas to server See’s Halloween Candies:
The sour bats are a great topper for mini cupcakes. Add a milk chocolate pumpkin for decoration in the center and surround it with the cupcakes.
We used a Jack-O-Lantern candle holder my daughter made at Color Me Mine one year for the Pumpkin Spice Truffles and the Cool Gear Light Up Skeleton Mug for the Pumpkin Spice Lollypops for extra Halloween flare. My daughter drew a “spooky” picture to display behind the treats.

We just returned from a very hot week in the Outer Banks. I can’t really complain about the heat because we did not have a drop of rain and stayed on the beach from morning to night with brief breaks inside to snack or eat. With the amount of time we were playing in the sun, it was extremely important to make sure we were drinking enough water and fluids. I have never seen my girls go through so many water bottles. We went through 1/2 a case of water a day and quite a few
