Actually, Easter's over a month away. But here are two of my top picks for Easter Candy 2009:
1. I love a Cadbury Creme Egg. Every year I hope to find the originals on the cheap in after- holiday sales. It turns out that the orange chocolate version is also a winner. There was a little juice or syrup pooled in the bottom of mine. Is this typical?
2. The Reeses Peanut Butter Egg is another classic I can eat without regrets. It's like a Reeses Peanut Butter Cup, but bigger and with more emphasis on the peanut butter filling (my favorite part). I think it might be better than the cup for those of us who value the peanut-butter insides over the chocolate outsides of pb and c candy permutations.
Cadbury Mini Eggs! My personal favorite. Can't get enough of that hard candy shell!
ReplyDeleteI am with you on the peanut butter to chocolate ration, sister. Yay Easter candy!
ReplyDeleteWhat are your thoughts on peeps?
I'm not gonna lie. I long for Cadbury Creme Eggs. I love them. One day, I shall harness my cooking powers to vegan-ize them. One day!
ReplyDeleteKellyR - I'm sure I've had the minis, but it's the creaminess of the big guy I crave.
ReplyDeleteMechanic - I think Peeps are okay (I like marshmallow), but I've never been thrilled by them. I don't buy them for myself, but I'll eat one or two if they're around.
CWNU - In the UK, I learned, McDonalds makes a McFlurry with Cadbury Creme Eggs. That would be the next thing to veganize, after the eggs themselves.
