Palmer Tricky Treats Halloween Mix vs Hershey Halloween Chocolate Mini Assortment

Buy the Hershey Mini Assortment if you want recognizable, brand-name candy with real variety: peanut butter cups, wafers, malted balls and chewy caramel in one bag. Buy the Palmer Tricky Treats if you need a large volume of individually wrapped, Halloween-themed pieces for a candy bowl or trick-or-treat handouts. The Hershey bag is the better-tasting and more trusted pick, while the Palmer bag wins on sheer quantity per package.

  • Choose the Palmer Tricky Treats if you need a big bag of spooky-shaped, individually wrapped pieces to hand out or fill bowls and don't mind a simple chocolatey flavor.
  • Choose the Hershey Mini Assortment if you want a mix of well-known candy bars and cups that most people actually like to eat.

What reviewers say

Palmer Tricky Treats Halloween Mix

Buyers treat this as a value bulk bag for Halloween bowls and trick-or-treat handouts. Most praise the piece count, the festive wrappers and how easy it is to share; the common complaint is that the chocolate tastes cheap and sweet compared with name-brand candy.

What people mention
  • TasteCriticisedBuyers say the chocolatey coating is sweet and waxy, closer to candy melts than real milk chocolate.
  • ValuePraisedOwners like getting a large number of wrapped pieces in one bag for Halloween handouts.
  • WrappersMixedThe festive foil designs are a hit, but the small wrappers are fiddly and create lots of trash.
  • ShapesPraisedThe creepy assorted shapes and colors make the mix feel seasonal rather than generic.

Questions and answers

Which is better for trick-or-treat handouts?
The Palmer bag, because 5 lbs gives you roughly 300 wrapped pieces, far more handouts per bag. The Hershey bag has better candy but only about 55 pieces.
Which tastes better?
Most people prefer the Hershey mix, since it includes Reese's cups, Kit Kat and Whoppers. Palmer pieces are a simple chocolatey candy with no fillings.
Which lasts longer on the shelf?
Both are individually wrapped and keep for months in a cool, dry place. The Hershey bag is more heat sensitive because of its chocolate and gelatin pieces, so keep it below 75°F.
Is the Hershey bag worth stepping up to over the Palmer bag?
Yes if flavor and brand variety matter more than quantity. No if you need enough candy to fill bowls for a crowd.
Are either of these good for a peanut allergy?
The Palmer bag is plain chocolate with no nut fillings, but check its label for shared-equipment warnings. The Hershey bag contains Reese's peanut butter cups, so it is not suitable for a peanut allergy.
