ANZ's October 26, 2026, analysis flags higher Australian Halloween confectionery costs as global cocoa and sugar prices rise.
Cocoa prices have more than doubled since February 2026 to around $8,300 per tonne; sugar prices rose around 45% over that period.
Adverse weather and crop disease disrupted cocoa production in Côte d'Ivoire and Ghana, which account for approximately 60% of global output.
Unfavorable weather in major sugar-producing regions has lowered production forecasts, putting upward pressure on prices.
Australian Halloween confectionery demand is likely to remain resilient despite higher costs.
