Did you know candy corn was originally named chicken feed? In the 1800s is when the production of candy corn started and the little orange, kernel-shaped candy was made by hand. It’s a treat we’re all familiar with and conjures up the best Halloween memories.

How to Make Candy Corn Halloween Shots
Candy corn vodka makes really delicious Halloween shots! Serve them in classic shot glasses or glass test tubes! The test tubes add a fun Halloween touch to any party. You can serve them over ice so guests can grab one as they want. It makes a charming presentation!
These are the glass test tubes we used for these Halloween shots.
Pour the candy corn vodka into a bowl with a spout. Slowly, pour the vodka into the glass test tube. If you need to use a funnel you can do that too.
Close them up with the lid and continue filling the rest. Make these a day before the party and store them in the refrigerator. When you’re ready to serve them, place them in a bowl filled with ice to keep them chilled.
Add some candy corns around and maybe even some faux spider webs for an extra spook!

What does candy corn taste like?
Candy corn is very sweet, and has a buttery marzipan taste to it. Sometimes I get a hint of butterscotch flavor too. The texture of candy corn is waxy and chewy.
