🎃🍏 Sweet (and Tooth-Friendly) Halloween Treats! 🍎🦷

Halloween doesn’t have to mean a sugar overload! 👻✨ Here are some fun — and smile-safe — alternatives your little monsters will still love:

🍿 Popcorn balls – Crunchy, festive, and easy to make with a light caramel drizzle (just skip the sticky stuff!).
🍎 Apple slices with peanut butter & mini chocolate chips – A perfect mix of sweet and healthy.
🧀 Cheese sticks – Wrap them in “mummy” gauze (a.k.a. paper towels) for a fun Halloween twist!
🍇 Fruit kabobs – Grapes, strawberries, and melon balls make a colorful, spooky snack.
🥜 Trail mix – Toss together nuts, pretzels, and a few candy corn pieces for balance.
💧 Flavored water or juice boxes – Add spooky labels for a festive touch!

And remember — if candy does sneak its way into your trick-or-treat bag, just brush and floss after! 🪥😉
