Oh the fun you can have with making holiday bark and incorporating all kinds of candy and even googly eyes! Halloween Bark uses up candy after Halloween ensuring this ghoulish holiday lasts a little longer!
Halloween Bark
Making a candy bark using leftover candy on any holiday is a fantastic way to get the candy out of the house! Well after you eat the bark that is.
Velvety chocolate is combined with your favourite chocolate, nuts, candy, chocolate bars, even dried fruit or pretzels creating a delicious anytime snack.
Halloween Candy
Ever lost and wondering what to do with leftover Halloween candy like us? For me it sits in the house and calls out my name. So I have to find ways to get rid of it quickly and efficiently!
Chop it all up and dunk it in chocolate, cool it and bam you have Halloween Bark.
What kind of chocolate do I use?
Any kind of melting chocolate. Even the coloured chocolate wafers. Orange, red, green or black would certainly add an effect to this bark!
When it’s time to add your candy or chocolates, mix everything right in reserving a few pieces to dot on top just to pretty it up.
PRO TIPS
- Halloween bark is more than just candy! Put in broken Girl Guide or Scout cookies, googly eyes, gummy candy, even leftover broken candy bars!
- Make a double batch. Seriously this stuff goes like hotcakes around here.
- Store in refrigerator or freeze

This is so fun! Love the idea of having the kids help to make it.
Thanks so much! I’ve always enjoyed having the the kids in the kitchen to help!
I love anything sweet. These Halloween Bark are so colorful and kids to binge on these. Nutty, chocolaty and yum.
A great way to use up nuts, candy, even chocolate!
We always make bark at Christmas, but I love this halloween version. I will give it a try this week.
These are just adorable! I love bark like this – so easy and festive! I’m looking forward to whipping up a batch – not to share – soon! 🙂
It is so addictive, not sharing is a clever plan!
This recipe is fun and creative and I love it!! It is indeed a funny holiday but after this hectic year, we could all use some sweet treats and candy!!
I agree!
