Favorite Easter Candy
« on: Mar 17, 2010, 11:00 am »
I'm a big fan of Easter Candy.  It's the most fun, seasonal, candy all year; better than Halloween!  The shapes, the colors, biting off the chocolate bunny ears!

I'm a big fan of Peeps, though mostly for nostalgia's sake.  In college, my roommates and I used to have Peeps bonfired on the quad.

But, my all time favorite is the Reese's eggs.  All that sweet/salty peanut butter with just a little shell of chocolate over it?  YUMM!

Oh man. My birthday is always near Easter, so that's my excuse for a LOT of candy. I love Peeps and Cadbury Eggs- one of my actresses right now got me a box of Cadbury eggs for opening!
I personally would like to bring a tortoise onto the stage, turn it into a racehorse, then into a hat, a song, a dragon and a fountain of water. One can dare anything in the theatre and it is the place where one dares the least. -Ionesco

Cadbury dark chocolate mini eggs--kind of like m&ms but WAY better.  However, I've not had much luck finding them this year :-(

Bunny basket eggs--they're like large jelly beans w/ super-sugar-saturated-marshmallow inside.  They sound gross, and they ARE gross, but I just can't lay off 'em!

I've never heard of those, kokobear.  Sound...interesting; someting I'd have to try at least once.  I have found chocolate eggs that contain a Peep, before.  I had to load up on those and take one to work every day for a week or so!

Cadbury Caramel Eggs.

There are literally 3 duane reade's and 1 7-11 in manhattan that sell them. I've looked everywhere else ;)

They are what have gotten me through tech the last two weeks :)

Lindt Milk Chocolate bunnies, the kinds with the bell around their neck on the little red ribbon. Melt-in-your-mouth.

Cadbury Creme Eggs, of course.  Though the Reese's eggs are great too.

Yesterday, I found chocolate covered Peeps.  Not a Peep inside a chocolate egg.  Just a Peep with chocolate poured on it.  Tasty, but the melted sugar coating combined with the chocolate made for very sticky eating!
