These layered fruit parfaits are a fun and festive, healthy candy corn treat for Halloween!
When Halloween arrives, kids often come home with bags of candy. These layered fruit parfaits are a healthier, festive alternative that still captures the classic candy corn look. They’re naturally sweet, colorful, and simple to assemble—perfect for parties, school events, or a quick seasonal snack.
I love making treats that mimic candy corn’s signature orange, yellow, and white layers. The bright colors are iconic for Halloween, so I often recreate them in different desserts. These parfaits are one of the quickest ways to get that look with real fruit and a touch of whipped cream.
With only three main ingredients, the recipe is practically foolproof. You don’t need to bake or spend much time prepping—just layer and serve. Below is the straightforward recipe so you can recreate these healthy candy corn parfaits at home.
