CRISPY GREEN ANNOUNCES 11TH ANNUAL HALLOWEEN COSTUME CONTEST

The Makers of Crispy Fruit Freeze-Dried Snacks Start Second Decade of Popular Annual Contest


Fairfiled, NJ, Oct. 12, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- 'If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it’! After 10 successful years, of the Crispy Green Annual Halloween Costume Contest , it has become a mainstay campaign element that will continue to engage consumers while highlighting an excellent healthy Halloween treat alternative to the many other sugar-loaded, cavity-producing culprits flooding the media. Last year’s special 10th anniversary contest surpassed the goal of 500 entries, with a total of 660 entries received! Check out last year’s winners: 

Every year the marketing team judges have as tougher decisions to make, as not only does the quantity increase, but the quality of entries also seems to get better each year!  Cherie Boldt, Marketing Director noted, “Our team looks forward to this time of year to be able to see the level of creativity and fun our customers put into their costumes. We are blown away by the incredible details of costumes, make-up, photo settings and time it must have taken to create some of these masterpieces! At the same time, we also love the simple, but super creative ideas and clever use of items laying around the house. We like to reward both approaches and choose a variety of winners.”  

 How the Contest Works 

To participate, contestants need to submit a photo of the costume being worn by themselves, or other family members or friends (there’s even a “pet” category!). When the deadline is closed, the Crispy Green team reviews all the entries and chooses the winners based on creativity, originality and execution. There are grand prizes in the “human” and “pet” categories, as well as honorable mentions and opportunities to win bonus prizes—for example, if any Crispy Fruit snacks are featured in the photo (not pPhotoshopped), they will receive a complimentary coupon for a free 4-pack (MSRP $8.99) and still qualify to win an award.  

Grand prize winners will receive an Amazon gift card along with a supply of Crispy Fruit and other fun SWAG from Crispy Green. Click here to learn more! Halloween Costume Contest
