Not candy, but look what I found in the easter aisle at Walmart.  $1.97 a package, you will have to also purchase an egg dying kit to go with them



That is so cool!  I loathe Walmart, but will definitely suck it up and go there to get these!  Thanks for sharing.

The cadbury candy coated mini eggs seem to be. We've been buying them from time to time but we like the hershey candy coated eggs better.

Is it wrong that I bought three boxes of them.  I figured for sure Walmart would discontinue them for next year so I plan to use one box over the next three years (hoping that DS1 would be over the egg dying thing by then as his belief in these things has already waned).

Are Cadbury mini-eggs safe for PN?

Yes! They're a favorite item in this household.

I'd just call it planning ahead!  I'm going to hunt some down this weekend.  :)

Bump. Mostly I'm trying to avoid seeing the words "Lucky Charms" when I scroll up and down the boards. It sends me into craving mode every time.

I do not know if this is safe and I did not buy because I've already received my VNF order, however, at Walgreens today I say a stand up chocolate bunny in a stamped foil made by Cadbury in the UK and it had no warnings on it!

What I did find and buy....I have a child with no allergies who hates chocolate.....so not my kid!  I never have a bunny for his basket until this year.  Wonka has two stand up plastic tray shaped like a rabbit with a cardboard front hosting a cute picture of a bunny.  One is filled with sweet tarts and the other is filled with Laffy Taffy.  $4.99 regular price.  He gets to have a bunny in his basket this year!  It's a peanut safe option.

FYI:  The Cadbury Easter Creme eggs and Cadbury mini-eggs manufactured in Canada have "may contain nuts/peanuts" on he label (for the past few years). 

(they used to import the safe UK ones years ago, but not anymore)

Bought Hershey mini eggs, whopper eggs, and Hershey candy coated eggs.  All the labels looked good but still makes me a bit nervous every year.  Everyone trusts Hershey's labeling, right??

Also found Sour patch kids bunnies.  Anyone use these?

Noticed the Cadbury eggs had a warning this year.

Oh, and peeps!  I bought a few packages that still read fine but noticed some on a stick and choc coated that had a warning.
