October is upon us and that means spiced cider, cooler weather, and Halloween, everyone’s favorite spooky holiday. Halloween parties are a fantastic way to get in the spirit and making deliciously evil treats is the perfect way to celebrate. Parties are a fabulous excuse to gather all your favorite people in one room, share some cocktails and to see some those friends you haven’t seen in a while. However, with large groups of people, inevitably comes food allergies and throwing a party can be made more difficult with the added pressure of food allergies.
Unlike other holidays, Halloween doesn’t have too many classic foods that must appear on the table, so this means your menu is much more flexible. Use it as an opportunity to get creative with your enchanting menu. Making food that is vegetarian, dairy free, or gluten free, can be a challenge, but do not fret! We have a bewitching list of recipes that cater to a wide array of allergies without sacrificing any of the spooky spirit so grab your cauldron to cook up some delicious treats this Halloween. Light some candles, dust off your cobwebs, and host a spine-tingling party everyone will remember.
