The holidays are a time to get together with family, watch your favorite holiday movies and break out the holiday candy! Candy canes are synonymous with Christmas, as are chocolate bunnies for Easter and conversation hearts on Valentine's Day. Of course, specialty candy like this requires special holiday candy costumes! The best party about wearing candy cane costumes for Halloween is that you can use them again in a couple of months for Christmas!

It's really hard to pick favorites, but in our humble opinion, cookie costumes are the best couples' costume ideas if you've got a wicked sweet tooth. You can pair up as cookies and milk or the two halves of an oreo. (Just don't get into a fight about who gets the cream half!) Mix it up with a holiday cookie outfit or check out some kids' cookie costumes. There's no wrong way to make this group costume idea for families, couples or friends!

Donut go anywhere— we know that was a terrible joke, but we have even more dessert costume ideas! One of our favorite breakfast desserts next to toaster strudels, donuts are by far the better costume idea. You can have different colored frosting and sprinkles, and girls have the option to put their hair in buns to go with their donut costume. It's super cute!

Is coffee a dessert? We'd like to argue that it is if it's full of cream and sugar! If you're looking for some other sweet dessert costume ideas, it doesn't hurt to think a little outside the box. Chocolate-covered strawberries? Check. Campfire s'mores? Double-check! You can even find costumes of your favorite international desserts like macarons! Comme c'est mignon.

Probably one of the most clever family costume ideas if you're still trying to make it about candy, you can add Oompa Loompa costumes, blueberries, candy and of course Wonka himself! (Just make sure to leave out the weird boat ride that traumatized our childhoods.)
