Baked goods are a great option as a sweet treat that offers just a little more sustenance than candy or chocolate. Whether you do your own baking, buy things like muffins or pastries when you’re grocery shopping or decide to grab a donut when you stop for coffee on the trip- these are always an easy one hand snack (as long as you watch out for crumbs). Chocolate comes with individual wrappers usually- so try to keep your shopping bag to keep your garbage in to avoid a messy car. As an added bonus- this can be a great opportunity to repurpose your leftover holiday chocolate if you have some mini Halloween bars, Easter Eggs, Valentines day treats or anything else you’ve been slowly working on. We know it’s technically Candy too, but there’s something a bit different about chocolate.
