I found lots too. Hershey kisses and caramel kisses (purple, pink foil) ... Hershey colour foil wrapped chocolate eggs, Hershey Eggies (candy coated chocolate eggs), some of the Hershey Chocolate bunnies are safe..
always check labels just in caseAlso many Kinder bunnies and eggs have peanut-free logos (however, I think these are banned in the USA --- and assault rifles are permitted.. huh? ???)
For those in Canada, Shoppers Drug Mart has a large selection of peanut free Easter chocolate.
We've bought (other than peanut free planet and vnf goodies) hershey candy coated chocolate eggs, hershey bunnies, egg shaped peppermint patties, whopper eggs, gimbal's jelly beans.

Those kinder eggs are awesome. Stupid US ban... Apparently someone in the US is allowed to sell a similar product because their toy container has a large ridge all the way around that sticks out of the chocolate. I can't find any allergen info on their site and the nutrition label doesn't load so I'll probably give them a call.

chocotreasure is not safe for nut allergies. I found it on their site somewhere.

I will have to find some of those swedish fish eggs as my daughter loves swedish fish.
are Starburst jelly beans safe?
I went to Target today to buy candy for my kids Easter baskets. I read the lables on everything but I just wanted to check here too. I bought Hershey's milk chocolate bunnies (6 pack, 1.2 oz each) Hershey's milk chocolate covered marshmallow eggs (6 pack, .95 oz each) Hershey's milk chocolate eggs, Whoppers Robins Eggs, Starburst jelly beans, starburts wrapped candiys, and fruity tootsie rolls. None of these had any kind of warning on them at all, and I think I have read about them all being safe on various nut-free mom blogs.
Emily Ann, we always buy Starburst Jelly Beans.

I found them at Target a couple weeks ago in the Easter section.
Maybe this will work:

Went to Target the other day and found the swedish fish eggs. Thanks! My daughter loves how they have a fish in with the eggs as well.
Oh wow. I need to do this. I haven't done anything. Nada.

I haven't either but DH has bought a boat load of candy, and I didn't want to give DD much candy this year. Oh well.
I bought way early and yet I still forget to get it ready (have to divide it between us and the in-laws-they give us $$ and we buy the candy for them to give the kids) until the night before. Go figure.
I think I got some Jolly Rancher jelly beans.. they were made in either Canada or Hershey, PA..read safe.
I bought LifeSaver Easter shaped gummies and dove milk chocolates yesterday. The lifesavers and swedish fish eggs however do not fit in the plastic eggs I bought...
Peanut only

We saw Swedish Fish jelly beans, not eggs.
When I am at Michael's today I may get some special Jelly Bellies now they're safe. I have a dance with the date that brung ya philosophy with Gimbels. They've been there for our community. But we do NOT need that many jelly beans around and I am not going to Walmart today. I don't actually know where one is here yet. There is no lack of shopping places here. And if course, Targets every mile (home turf). Jelly Bellies can be bought in small quantities. :)
One thing I got this year (and it's kind of too late to recommend it for Easter) is some maple candy. I got it from http://www.vermontmaplesweets.com (http://www.vermontmaplesweets.com) and they assured me they make nothing with nuts or peanuts. My kids will be thrilled.
