It's getting to that time of year again when little monsters are going to be roaming around the neighborhood looking for the choicest sweets. If you don't want to be tricked, handing out premium treats is a must. Thankfully, folks don't need to look any further than Costco to stock up on highly-rated Halloween goodies that are bound to put a smile on the faces of even the pickiest trick-or-treaters. 

The items below are verified as quality finds from fellow shoppers given that they're all rated with four or more stars on Costco's website. Take your pick between chocolatey or fruity and crunchy or gooey treats that taste even better in the brisk autumn air. Best of all, most of these sweets won't set you back a pretty penny. If you're not someone who gets excited about giving away free candy on Halloween, think of these as a worthwhile investment in keeping your lawn TP-free this year. 

As always, the cost and availability may vary by region but you could take the easy route and simply purchase them online (some of the products aren't available in brick-and-mortar locations). Don't be afraid to load up with more than you need, either. If you don't give them out (or eat them yourself), there are plenty of uses for extra Halloween candy. With that, let's dig into the best treats Costco has to offer in 2026.

Full-sized candies

Classic candies never go out of style on Halloween — especially when they're full-sized. Stock up for the holiday this year with a collection of iconic sweets from Mars. Each box of 30 candies includes eight individually wrapped Snickers, seven Twix, six peanut M&Ms, five regular M&Ms, and four Milky Way bars. Make sure to account for all the ones you're going to dip into before Halloween when deciding how many boxes to buy.

Gourmet caramel corn

If you're planning to give away premium snacks as a surefire way to impress trick-or-treaters this year, Popcornopolis has just the thing for you. Costco is selling bundles of 24 2.2-ounce bags of gourmet caramel corn packaged in cute Halloween-themed bags featuring various recognizable monsters from your favorite holiday tales. Hand them out on the big day, stash them away for yourself, or if you're hosting a spooky party include them in a treat-filled goodie bag for guests.
