Oh, sweet!
Vermont Nut Free Chocolates is always a holiday favorite. New to their line is "Skippers", a safe alternative to M&Ms. They also sell wonderful little candy-filled tins that seem to please any child. And the nice thing is, these tins can be filled with just about anything, and savoured for long after the holidays are over.
The following treats have no peanuts, tree nuts, or egg. They are available in party-sized bags at Walgreens, CVS and Target. As always, read the ingredients on the bag AND on the candy wrapper. Smarties
Tootsie Rolls
Tootsie Pops
Skittles
Starburst
Dubble Bubble
Dum Dum Pops
Swedish Fish
Sour Patch Kids
Life Saver Hard Candies
Life Saver Gummies
Jujyfruits
Mike and Ikes
Twizzlers
Milk Duds
Whoppers
Non-food treats are always an option, too. Have a bowl of candies and a bowl of little treats. The Oriental Trading Company sells hundreds of little party favors at very reasonable prices. iParty (on Soldiers Field Road in Allston) sells bulk party favors. Shopping Tips My preschool compiled a list of No Nuts Food Ideas. I have since added a few items and I’ve given a copy to family/relatives/friends—it can make snack shopping easier if I’m unable to do it myself. Remember, though, ingredients can change! Always read the labels.
