☆ Halloween could taste different this year thanks to soaring cocoa prices

That’s because cocoa prices have more than doubled since the start of the year and have remained at record highs, according to Wells Fargo data shared with CNN. The surging prices have caused grief for confectioners during prime chocolate sales seasons like Valentine’s Day and Easter. The company’s president, Michele Buck, said in a call in August with analysts that cocoa prices are “not sustainable,” and pointed toward higher prices. Though hope is on the horizon, experts project cocoa prices will remain high until at least September 2025.

☆ Rise in Sugar and Cocoa Costs Makes Halloween Candy Pricier
▼ + stars: | 2023-10-27 | by ( J. Edward Moreno | More About J. Edward Moreno | ) www.nytimes.com time to read: +1 min

Low rainfall in places like Mexico, India and Ivory Coast could lead to lighter sacks of candy for trick-or-treaters this Halloween, as disappointing sugar and cocoa harvests have pushed up candy prices. The price of candy is up 7.5 percent from last year and 20 percent from 2021, according to the latest data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. That is a steeper climb than inflation overall, and has been driven by a spike in the prices of crucial ingredients like sugar and cocoa, which are the highest they’ve been in global wholesale markets in decades. That’s because of poor harvests stemming from hot, dry weather and the high cost of fertilizer, among other factors. Sugar cane, which is processed into sugar, and cocoa, a key ingredient in chocolate, are especially sensitive to periods of low rainfall in the tropical regions where those crops grow, like parts of Asia, Central America and West Africa.

With European nations weaning off Russian energy, competition has increased in the diesel market due to the influx of buyers.

"Higher prices make the profitability of refining diesel go much higher," he said. The mechanism to do that is simply through diesel prices rising."
