Fair Trade Halloween Ghosties!

White chocolate cinnamon caramels, made with organic, fair trade sugar, vanilla and cinnamon, fair trade chocolate (from Guittard), and organic cream from pasture raised, grass-fed cows.

Most store-bought Halloween candy, including many childhood favorites made by Hershey’s, Nestlé, Mars, Cadbury, Godiva and others, is made from cocoa beans purchased from large plantations in West Africa that use child slave labor.

The children’s families are tricked into sending their children to the plantations for “short term work,“ but the children are kept for years. They work long hours in abhorrent conditions for little or no pay,often with inadequate food, medical care, no schooling, and no contact with their families. Although Mars, Nestlé and Hershey have made some slight improvements in the last few years since this has been made public, their long term“goal” of 100% transparency by 2025 has not happened.

I will be away for Halloween this year, but next year you can purchase fair trade Halloween treats from me. In the meantime, you can do an online search for “fair trade” or “ethically sourced” Halloween candy.  (Of course it will be more expensive; the people who harvest the beans to make the chocolate are being paid!) There are lots of options!

This is my process for decorating my molds with pressed, edible flowers, after I have cut off all the stems. It is tricky and time-consuming, but the results are worth it!
