Easter Candy….It Gets Me Every Time….

I love Easter candy. Big time. I have a huge sweet tooth can’t control myself. I really must be stopped.  

I know some people hate peeps but I love them. They are my favorite. My husband even got me some for Valentine’s day. But I only really like the yellow ones.

Bunny Basket Eggs are another favorite. I’ve learned I can only eat 2 or 3 of these and then need to stop or I’ll make myself  sick. Healthy right? I haven’t been able to find these in the store yet. Whatever will I do????

Cadbury creme egg…a classic I like but find that it’s a little too chocolaty for me (I know! I’m not the biggest chocolate fan. Please don’t hate me!)

Already consumed a bag of these bad boys. An Easter must.
 
I do love chocolate if it’s mixed with peanut butter. I could eat these year round…if only they were good for you.

Cadbury Mini Eggs. My husband’s favorite. And I sort of  like them too.

What’s your favorite Easter candy?

    Personally, if it's not chocolate, I don't eat it! My absolute favorite is See's big chocolate eggs…filled with chocolate fudge butte rcream and nuts, so wonderful!
    Grandma M always used to get me one for Easter….I don't know if they still make them, but certainly they must!

    I love gummy sweettarts bunnies! Since you are not a huge chocolate girl you MUST try these! Just don't blame me when you add another Easter candy addiction to your list! haha

    By far my favorite is the Reese's peanut butter eggs. The peanut butter/chocolate ratio is perfect. I love that there is so much peanut butter in there.

    I end up eating the Cabbury Mini Eggs by the pound. This post may have totally weakened my resolve to stay away from Easter candy 🙂
