The Best Easter Candy of All Time Is . . . Definitely Not Bunny Corn
If you have kids of a certain age . . . or a sugar addiction . . . you're probably going out on a CANDY RUN or two this weekend.
There's a ranking online of the best Easter candy of all time, and thousands of people weighed in. Here are the Top 10:
1. Reese's Peanut Butter Eggs
2. Cadbury Mini Eggs
3. Chocolate Lindt Gold Bunny
4. Easter Pastel M&Ms
5. Cadbury Crème Egg
6. Cadbury Caramel Egg
7. Hershey's Solid Milk Chocolate Eggs
8. Whoppers Robin Eggs
9. Jelly Bellys . . . ("Regular" jelly beans are 15th.)
10. Hershey's Easter Solid Milk Chocolate Bunny
Overall, 24 Easter candies were ranked, and coming in dead last is: BUNNY CORN, which isn't surprising. If you're unfamiliar, that's the Easter version of Halloween candy corn.
Brach's "Bunny Basket Eggs" are second-last, followed by Brach's "Chicks and Rabbits." Both of those are marshmallow candies.
(You can find the complete ranking, here.)
Speaking of Easter candy, Instacart has a map of the top-selling Easter candies across the country, and in most of America, Reese's Eggs or Cups are #1.
Hershey's Milk Chocolate is bigger in the Southwestern part of the country . . . California, Nevada, Arizona, New Mexico, and Colorado, plus North Dakota. And Cadbury Milk Chocolate is #1 in Alaska and Washington, D.C. (DoorDash also has a map of Easter candy popularity, and it's similar.)
