If your house is anything like ours, there is a candy dish out starting in the middle of fall all throughout the rest of the year. If your house is like many grandma’s houses, there is a candy dish out all year round, usually with mints or little sweets for anyone to enjoy.

We’ve scoured the Internet in search of our favorite candy dishes and bowls and below, you can see what we’ve come up with. So sit back, pop a piece of candy into your mouth, and let’s take a look.

Best Plastic Jar
For those who need a little help when it comes to self control, you’ll feel better about yourself when it’s harder to lift up a lid each time you want to grab a handful of candy.

The STORi 30-Ounce Premium Quality Clear Plastic Apothecary Jar is just the kind of dish you want to display your deliciousness for all your guests to see.

Best Glass Bowl
For a bowl that is going to give your room some character and add a fun design to your home, try the Fred UNZIPPED Hand-Blown Glass Bowl. This glass bowl looks like an unzipped plastic bag and even has the indented crinkled sides to continue the look. It is made from hand-blown borosilicate glass that remains durable even with everyday use. Even if something spills in this bowl, you can wash it in the dishwasher, so it’s easy to take care of. It has a flat base and bottom, so it will remain stable while you’re reaching your hands in to nab some M&M’s or Skittles. It also comes in a gifting box that’s great for wrapping for someone or just for storing it for yourself. The bowl measures approximately 5″ x 5″ x 6″, providing you with a solid amount of volume to fill. There is no lead in it either, making it completely safe to store things in.
