Title: Easter Candy 2012
Post by: Princess Cheese on February 16, 2012, 12:31:55 PM
Things I saw yesterday at WM that read safe for PA/TNA:

Hershey's Milk Chocolate Bunnies
Hershey's Milk Chocolate Eggs
Sixlets
Hershey's Marshmallow Eggs (comes in a multi-pack, I think)


What I found not safe that disappointed me:  Fun size Easter Milky Way Caramel. :(

I also saw the safe Hershey eggs.. both foil covered eggs and candy coated mini eggs (saw at Shopper's Drug Mart.. they have a lot of peanut free Easter chocolate this year including Hershey, Vadeboncouer/Freddo, some Kinder bunnies and some Life brand)

Ok, explain this  to me...

Target (at least the one I go to) didn't put out Valentine's candy out until 2 weeks before the day, yet, Easter candy is out with almost a month and half before the holiday...crazy!

I'm not sure if The Dollar Store is Canadian or not.  I'll see if I can find their web site.

After searching around the web, it's actually Dollarama that sells them.   :hiding:  (It's also Canadian.)

yes Anna Marie, I have also seen Freddo (a division of Les Chocolates Vandboncouer) at Dollarama many times..  they often have the Freddo chocolate pieces with a soft caramel filling there...  they are also at Shoppers Drug Mart and Rexall / Pharma Plus.  I bought a Freddo chocolate Advent calendar at Christmas and a Freddo Dora the Explorer chocolate heart... peanut-free, wheat-free, egg-free etc

p.s. Rexall pharmacy had the Freddo advent calendars for 50 cents after Christmas so a bought a few more! haha
