Question of the Day - Monday, March 22, 2021

[MoochNNoodles]

Easter is in less than 2 weeks now; so that means it's candy season. And eggs. I've already gotten most of the basket stuff for my kids. I just need to get down the plastic eggs and sort those out. Our hunt might be a little different this year with the yard torn up and sandy. But the weather has been so nice; so we should be outside without issue. I do need to focus on our Easter menu so I can gather ingredients. Especially for my Crab Deviled Eggs. So yummy!



What is your favorite Easter Candy? Least favorite?




I always loved the Cadbury Cream eggs; but I acutally didn't get any this year. I think they are just TOO sweet now. The caramel ones are better and I've enjoyed the chocolate filled ones too. I do like my Jelly beans though! There are so many flavors out now. Jelly Belly is still the king of the jelly beans but I don't usually buy them. I go for the Starburst, Jolly Rancher and Sweet Tart ones for the kids to fill the plastic eggs for hiding. I get the leftovers.

I think my least favorite are the Robins Eggs. I'm not a malt ball fan. But my kids like them so I use those to fill some eggs too. Peeps are a mystery but I still like them better than the Robins Eggs.

I haven't had an Easter basket of my own in many, many years. I used to make one for DH and DD and then just DD after he passed away but I never made one for myself. I like Peeps but I like the special flavors (the blue raspberry ones are amazing) and the ones that are dipped in fudge best. I have never liked Cadbury creme eggs and never will. They are way too sweet and IMO their chocolate is absolutely awful.

I’ve never been a fan of Peeps or anything like that/ those are probably my least favorite- but I’ll take anything chocolate any day of the week!

I like Hershey’s Marshmallow Eggs so maybe I would like the Peeps chocolate covered. I did try a sour one before and it was pretty good. At least better than the plain sugar ones.

I don't like candy. Maybe an Easter flavored coffee or cappuccino? That's the only sweet thing I like.
Least favorite would be anything chocolate.

 

[MonaLyssa33]

Black jelly beans are the worst. As for the best, I love the Cadbury Creme Eggs, Starburst Fave Reds jelly beans, and I like to get the single serving Russel Stover's chocolates, usually coconut cream, truffle and caramel.

 

[muffy]

My favorite are peanut butter eggs. The least favorite are those nasty Peeps.

Cadbury cream eggs! And white chocolate bunnies. And perfectly stale peeps (you have to let them get stale). And unlike MonaLyssa33 , I may have bought a bag of just black jelly beans for J's Easter basket. It's too bad she can only have the candy indirectly and I'll have to eat it all for her.

I pretty much like everything. Unless there's coconut in it. Or I think of something later.

You took the words right out of my mouth, my thoughts exactly!

 

[sivyaleah]

Love Peeps way way too much.

choclate peanut butter eggs

 

[Talien]

I can't stand cadbury cream eggs, they literally make my teeth hurt.

Peanut butter eggs, on the other hand, I can eat those all day.

The malted milk ball eggs are So good.

 

[Beholder]

When I was a kid I hated the malted milk eggs more than anything in the world. My favorite was a white chocolate bunny my mom would put in my Easter basket every year.

Agreed. Stale or frozen are the only way to eat Peeps!

I am so sorry about your mom. They do have wonderful candy.

I've never tried frozen, but I have four packs of peeps this year (we ordered ones that look like Easter eggs off amazon and I wasn't expecting so many), so maybe I'll have to put a pack in to try.
