Another plot twist could be that the house made of candy is a magical test. Instead of being victims, Hansel and Gretel are actually chosen ones. If they can resist the temptation of the candy long enough, they will be granted magical powers to save their village from a famine. But if they fail, they will be turned into forest creatures. This twist changes the traditional view of the children as simply being in danger.
One interesting plot twist could be that the witch is actually a misunderstood outcast who was trying to protect the forest from a greater evil. So she took Hansel and Gretel not to eat them, but to train them as protectors.
In the story, Hansel and Gretel are children whose stepmother wants to abandon them in the forest due to poverty. The first time, Hansel leaves a trail of pebbles to find their way back home. But the second time, they are truly lost as the birds eat the breadcrumbs he left. They come across a gingerbread house owned by a wicked witch. The witch tries to fatten Hansel to eat him, and Gretel outsmarts the witch, pushing her into the oven. In the end, they find their way back home and their stepmother is gone, and they live happily with their father.
The short story of 'Hansel and Gretel' is quite interesting. The two children, Hansel and Gretel, live with their father and stepmother. Due to poverty and the stepmother's wickedness, they are abandoned in the forest. They stumble upon a house that looks like it's made from gingerbread and other sweets. It is the lair of a witch. The witch imprisons Hansel, planning to fatten him up and eat him. Gretel is made to do chores. But Gretel is smart. She manages to free Hansel and together they defeat the witch by tricking her into the oven.

One interesting plot twist might be that the candy house in the story is not just a lure by the witch but a gateway to another magical world.

They have to team up with the witch to survive in this new world and in the process, they learn that the witch has her own sad backstory which led her to become the way she is in the original fairy tale.
At the end of the story, the children manage to outsmart the witch. Gretel pushes the witch into the oven where she was planning to cook Hansel.

Then there's the stepmother, who is quite mean and wants to get rid of the children. And of course, the most infamous character, the witch. She lives in the gingerbread house and has very evil intentions towards Hansel and Gretel.
Another plot could be that years after their ordeal, Hansel and Gretel become famous for their survival skills. A new threat emerges in their village, a dark sorcerer who is stealing children. They use their knowledge of the witch's magic and their own courage to fight the sorcerer and save the children. They could also teach the other villagers how to defend themselves using the things they learned from the witch's lair.
