Gourmet Halloween Gifts: From Ghoulish Cake Pops To Chocolate Eyeballs That Ooze Caramel
Jump to the article index below
CAPSULE REPORT: There’s no need to spend any of your time searching for gourmet Halloween treats. We’ve done the hard work for you—tasting the best chocolate, cakes, brownies, marshmallows and other Halloween goodies. Very hard work, indeed!
What we found: exceptional gourmet sweets for you and everyone on your treat list. We looked for:
- Lovely Designs: nice hand work, not products stamped out of molds.
- Superior Taste: products made with the finest ingredients.
Our spooktacular selections will please everyone, including the fussiest connoisseurs.
Plus, we have a special Halloween bonus for you: If you'd like to buy any of them at TheNibbleGourmetMarket.com, use code BOO for a 10% discount at checkout on any and all treats (through October 31st).
Now, take a look at them:
- Chocolate “Critter” Bonbons. The chocolate ganaches inside are variously flavored with Abominable Apple, Blood Orange, Chocolatey Goo, Gruesome Grape, Slimy Lime and Strawberry Blob. Yum!
- Chocolate Halloween Lollipops. You can find Halloween-themed lollipops just about anywhere—but none are as luscious as these: beautiful hand decorating on gourmet chocolate pops (photo below).

- Chocolate Caramel Eyeballs. They’re staring right at you, so who wouldn’t take a bite of these hand-painted chocolate eyeballs? When you do, you’ll discover the buttery, cinnamon-flecked caramel inside (photo at left).
- Ghost & Pumpkin Cake Pops.
Underneath the hand-decorated chocolate coating is chocolate cake. Choose from a ghost-jack o’ lantern-pumpkin combo, or a bucket of all eyeballs, jack o’ lanterns or pumpkins (photo at top). We can’t get enough of these. We even bought a cake pop tower!
- Marzipan Pumpkins. We love marzipan. These little pumpkins are bites of delight by themselves, and delicious with coffee or tea.
- Solid White Chocolate Ghost. This hand-painted ghost is positively noble as he carries a jack o’ lantern on All Hallow’s Eve.*
Click on the product links to learn more about these ghostly-but-great sweets and gifts. You won’t find them on store shelves, so in order to receive them by regular mail, order before the witching hour on October 21st.
