Licorice Black Cats

What says Halloween more than a black cat? These black licorice cats make a slightly out-of-the-ordinary Halloween food gift, although you'll want to make sure the recipient really likes black licorice since it's such a specific taste! You can find these at various places online, but since time is getting short for Halloween, your better bet at this late date would be to find a speciality candy store and buy in person. Done up in a little glass jar with some black and orange ribbon (or orange, purple, and green), these would make a classy little Halloween gift.

Question of the day: How many of you have already bought candy for trick-or-treaters, and how many of you have already opened one of those bags?! We get about a hundred trick-or-treaters each year, and we really look forward to it. We bought our candy a few days ago, and for once we've managed to stay out of it so far!
