Easter Candy Showcase

New Peeps this year...those green ones were very fresh. The bunnies are cocoa and they're quite yummy.
These are called Easter Basket Eggs (or is it Bunny Basket?) and they've been around for years. They're big (about 2 inches long) and inside is a kind of nougat-y marshmallow fluff. The white ones are the best. I love how they're kind of gritty, like you're really chewing on sugar.
There may be more candy to come...I've barely scratched the surface.

Candy showcase

Most of you know that I am a candy connoisseur. Not being allowed it when I was young led to an obsession with it as I got older. On the flip side, I have no cavities.

Anyway, I'm sure you've noticed that certain candies are particular to each holiday. I am going to showcase my favorites for each one.

The top photo is some Christmas peeps that were new this season (at least I'd never seen them). They were called Cookie Cutouts and they smelled and tasted faintly of butter and they are now my favorite kind of Peep.

Then there are the good ol' cinnamon jelly hearts...they're dangerous. It's not even February and I've already overdone it with those.

Check back for the Easter review...unless I can find candy for St. Pat's.
