Favorite Easter Candy??

After just getting back from Easter shopping Rite Aid and Happy Harry's, I am curious what is everyone's favorite Easter Candy?? With only 3 off us, it was really hard to narrow the choices down, between, Peeps, lindor easter egg truffles, Reese peanut better eggs, snicker eggs, jelly beans, cadbury eggs, chocolate bunnies, Reese pieces (shaped like a carrot), Bunnymallows,robins eggs,and so on. I am a believer that Easter has the best candy.....

So my favorite, hands down, the Reese Peanut Butter Eggs....I don't know why, but they are ten times better then the Reese cups. DH says its because the peanut butter ratio is higher in the eggs, I don't know and I don't care the are SOOOO GOOOOOD!

I HAVE to have one small package of Peeps.

I like 1 or 2 Cadbury eggs.

I like the Russell Stover eggs - Pecan Delight, Coconut Cream and Marshmallow Cream. A couple of those are good.


That's about it.

OMG....I think Peeps should be outlawed. Those things don't even feel right in my mouth.
I vote for Robin eggs all the way!

Reese's PB eggs RULE!! I agree with whoever said they're better than the cups because the pb ratio is higher.

I also like:

Cadbury Mini Eggs-the little solid chocolate ones
Robin Eggs


Peeps are cool, but only to play with. One of my friends at work likes to have "Peep Jousts". Take a Peep and push a toothpick into the front of it so about 2/3 of the toothpick sticks out. Take another Peep and do the same thing. Put both peeps on a paper towel, facing each other but with space between them. Put them in the microwave and turn the power on high(the amount of time is unimportant, but set it for several minutes just to be safe). Then watch the show! The peeps will get bigger and bigger until the toothpick in one of them punctures the other causing it to deflate. As soon as this happens open the door so they don't over nuke and burn. The peeps can be eaten but they'll be very hot(and watch out for that toothpick!). It's also fun to just watch peeps get REALLY big in the microwave.

That is the best use of peeps I have ever heard. I HAVE to try it.
I also agree about the reeses eggs but they are getting so small. I liked them when they first came out and they were huge with lots of peanutbutter.

Laura Secord Cream Eggs -- but they have to be imported. My family tends to bring them when they visit. Otherwise, I like Mini Eggs, the Cadbury ones, I mean. I love Peeps to look at, but I've never managed to eat a whole one.

Milky Way "eggs" are so delicious they actually melt in your mouth and taste like a little bit of heaven.

I love Russell Stover's chocolate coconut nests with little jelly beans. Too bad I couldn't find them at Walgreens this year. I wonder if they've been discontinued. I like the Reese's PB eggs and the Mounds coconut eggs.

Nope, they're still around!

I saw them either at our (GA) Walgreen's or CVs. Maybe yours was just out?

I love peanut butter eggs.

DH loves the peeps and the jelly beans from the same company (Just Born). Grew up about 1 mile from the plant.

Don't really have much chocolate since DH is allergic and can only have white chocolate.

I had my very 1st peeps today , Kids got them form School, OMG thought I would Gag I had to spit it out, that had to be the yuck of all time. And I like Mashmellows !!, Something about that candy just didnt feel right.

I'm not a big candy fan at all, I dont 'Really' care for candy nor Chocolate(s). But just having to pick 1 candy It would have to be RS egg nest ( Chocolate covered Coconut with mini Jelly Beans )

Reese's Peanut Butter is probably my all time favorite anytime. At Easter time I always get me a package of the cheap-o chocolate covered marshmallow eggs. I don't know what it is about those...but I get my one egg carton of them each year. Yum! This year I shared them with everyone.

That is hilarious about the Peeps joust in the microwave! We'll have to try that. I don't really care for Peeps but I'll eat one if someone gives it to me.

I think I'd buy the peep just to joust, couldnt eat it, it's like biteing into a mound of granulated sugar that thinks it's a marshmellow heheh

I also love Robins eggs but only if they have the crunchy shell, whoever came up with the soft shell really ruined them.

Almost forgot black jelly beans

cheap chocolate covered marshmellow eggs too

If I was home in Evansville IN it would be the easter egg shaped candy from Libs. My favorite is butter cream but I love them all.

Isn't it funny that all of us that like Peeps only like them stale? My kids are trained. They slice open the Peeps carton and shove them to the back of the fridge for me!

Anyone remember the Chuckles Juju candy?

I used to get the bags of bunny shapes for Easter.

I haven't seen them for years. Maybe they stopped making them?

I did find the regular round ones at the dollar store a couple weeks ago.
