Halloween in Australia isn’t just about the costumes and plastic pumpkin buckets; it’s about the thrill of knocking on the neighbour’s door, shouting “trick or treat!” and seeing what kind of loot you’ll score. And let’s be honest, no one’s crossing their fingers for a muesli bar. It’s always been about the chocolate.
There are some flavours that never leave us. For Aussies, chocolate is one of them.
It’s the bite that brings you back to the school canteen, the smell of choc crackles at a birthday party, or the rocky road Mum made at Christmas. One taste, and suddenly you’re a kid again, running around the backyard with chocolate on your face and zero worries in sight.
Halloween might’ve started out as a big American thing, but these days it’s crept right into Aussie life, including right here in Canberra. From front yards decked out with fake cobwebs to kids running around in polyester costumes, October 31st is no longer just another date on the calendar; it’s become a proper event we all look forward to.
