Dairy, Egg, Soy Free Candy for Halloween?

[rabrog]

My best friend's DD is allergic to the above. We are having a Trunk or Treat walk at church for Fall Festival. I'd like to have something she can have.

Any ideas?

I think Skittles and Starburst, if I'm remembering correctly from my friend with allergic children.

smarties & sweet tarts for sure. Also check out lick-m-aid stuff. I think most fruity, powder-based candies should work. Gummy candies & lollipops should be fine too. I think you actually have a lot of options since corn isn't an issue - most candy that isn't chocolate will probably be fine. Just check the ingredients of course.

Laffy Taffy contains soy. I'm pretty sure Starburst does, too.

I usually do Smarties (not the Canadian ones), sweet tarts (not the chewy ones), and Nerds. Dum-dums (suckers/lollipops) should be okay, too. Double check--I only read for soy and gluten.

I know a good portion of the stuff posted has soy in it. I'll check the stuff I'm not sure on, though. It's a start.

Well that was from www.kidswithfoodallergies.org forums - JUst throwing them out there.

My daughter can have (some of the) dum dum suckers. (She also has a number of other allergies on top of what you've listed. I'd avoid the chocolate ones.

I'd ask the parent what they would suggest.

I let my son have gummy bears, the one brand here is really great - no food colourings or anything.
