“Halloween is more than just a night of trick-or-treating,” said Bill Leibengood, chief marketing officer of Shipley Donuts. “It’s a season filled with neighborhood get-togethers, classroom parties and office celebrations, and we think every celebration deserves something sweet. Our bakers love getting creative this time of year, putting a spooky, playful twist on our classic donuts to make treats that are just as fun to share as they are to eat.”
