6 Candy Corn-Inspired Recipes for Halloween

This DIY recipe produces delicious candy corn look-alikes. The taste and texture of these candies is different from standard store-bought candy corn—they're much softer, have a sweet vanilla-marshmallow taste, and—dare we say it—even tastier.

Sweet and chewy, these candy corn popcorn balls are unbelievably easy to whip up for any last-minute costume parties. Just melt together marshmallows, popcorn, and candy corn, then press together—it's really that easy.

This vanilla-flavored fudge mimics the fall colors of candy corn and makes for a great Halloween treat. It's easy to assemble, but requires time to chill in between steps, so plan accordingly if you're making for a party.

Jell-O shots take on an entirely different look in these candy corn oranges. They're a fun boozy treat for Halloween—or any occasion where pint-sized, spiked oranges may add to the festivities.

Just three ingredients—candy corn, peanut butter, and chocolate—combine to form these bite-sized candy bars with the crackly texture and bold peanut butter taste of a certain Bart Simpson-approved treat.
