Ok, ok, I know. Just last year I had sworn off the chocolate bunny. And the delicious cream eggs. And Reese's eggs. And really, truly, all of my favorite things about Easter. But after our success with No Whey on Christmas, I knew I needed to try their Easter candy.
We got a chocolate bunny for each kid, a chocolate sucker for each kid (the winning candy from Christmas), and a bag of both kinds of their mini eggs (I mean "veggs")
The cream veggs (you know, I really liked a lot of their names for the other candies but I just don't think I can get behind vegg. That was really a choice.) were good. Less cream flavor and more just vanilla sugar, but you know what? Vanilla sugar is great. Both kids liked this egg the best.
All the adults who tried the sun butter (pea-not butter) ones liked them the best. It was a delicious creamy filling, and though the outer chocolate was a little thick, it was still a good approximation to a Reese's egg. The kids didn't care for these- the little one, who has never had any Reese's magic, just thought it was gross. The older one, who recently ate a Reese's egg and said the real thing was the best thing he's ever eaten, said the knock off safe one was "a little good and a little bad."
The best thing, though, was the chocolate bunnies. We made the mistake of telling the little one she could eat some for breakfast on Easter, then she refused to eat any of the (chocolate chip!!) pancakes I made and told me in no uncertain terms she would be having just candy for breakfast.
She ate a good half a bunny before devolving into a sugar fit. Next time she'll start with the pancakes first!
