Easter will be here before we know it! With Easter comes lots of chocolate and candy! Yumm! I need to start thinking about other “gifts” for the baskets this year. Maybe a movie or puzzle.
This year is exciting because we will be making our own Easter candy. My Aunt Ruth is staying with my mom and we are all going to get together with my cousin and have a day of candy making. My grandmother used to make candies for every holiday and then some. Too bad my candy molds are still in storage…
I don’t have the list of items we will be making, but I hope it includes some chocolate peanut butter eggs. Those are my favorite! These eggs below look pretty tasty too!
Have you ever made your own candy? What is your favorite?
I LOVE Sees candy!! There peanut butter eggs are do die for!
I love Easter time. The Easter Bunny hides the kids baskets every year and they have fun looking for them!
My husbands grandmother use to make homemade chocolate easter eggs which were pretty large with coconut. Best I ever had, please her heart she has long passed and I have never forgotten
how special they were !
I used to make truffles quite a bit, but haven’t made too many other candies.
I like making homemade truffles, but I loveeee Cadbury Caramel Eggs 🙂
Yummy!
I dunno if I have a favorite I Just enjoy watching my kiddos open their baskets on Easter.
I love Easter!
I make my own candy at Christmas time but never any other time… I’m not sure why that is
one of my favorite things about Easter is all of the candy!
I love jelly beans.
We bought a bunch at Costco
Mmm. I love See’s candies, but I think I’m going to try to make most of ours this year since we have a little one with sugar sensitivities now, so I can use substitutes like honey and brown rice syrup!
Cadbury eggs are the best!
Everything looks so good!
I love Easter candy – so colorful! I’ve never made my own though!!
The only candy I’ve really made is that I’ve used those candy melts to make chocolate-covered Oreos which were AMAZING! But usually I just buy candy because I lack skill. I’m jealous though for your candy making day- it sounds super fun! 🙂
I love peanut butter eggs but I’m going to have to limit myself this year being on my diet!
My m-i-l always makes big chocolate/peanut butter eggs with the grandchildren’s names on them.
I haven’t made my own candy, but we are BIG See’s fans here in our family!
I’ve never really made my own, I really should I love to bake. But I LOVE LOVE LOVE Peeps!
