NEW YORK, Oct. 11, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — What’s the best way to celebrate the Halloween season? Chocolate and candy, of course!
On Tuesday, October 1st, Carly Schildhaus, spokesperson for the National Confectioners Association, conducted a nationwide media tour discussing these key topics:

NCA also found that more than half of Americans start enjoying Halloween treats before October 31 – serving as further proof of the central role that chocolate and candy play in the season. Sharing chocolate and candy is a perfect way to connect with others, and the Halloween season is the perfect time to do so – especially as people are looking for more moments of celebration than ever before.
