Florida’s Halloween sweet tooth: 2025 candy and decor trends from Instacart data. Halloween is, unsurprisingly, a big day for candy purchases. On October 31, 2024, the share of orders with candy was 100% higher than the yearly average. Once again, Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups took the #1 spot, measured by total weight sold in October 2024.
