What are some of the most popular Easter Candy that people offer as gifts?
Easter has many candy types offered for a gift with its own meaning and culture. Eggnog, rabbit-shaped hollow or solid chocolate eggs are a traditional Easter gift from the 1920s to represent fertility and new life. Marshmallow Peeps, sweet marshmallows that are decorated with chicks or bunnies, originated in the 1950s and are associated with Easter. Several types of candy eggs, such as plastic eggs that are filled with jelly beans, chocolate or other sweets, are also often buried at Easter egg hunts, to surprise and delight children. Foil-wrapped chocolate eggs, small egg-shaped chocolates decorated with a festive foil, are festive treats to add to Easter baskets. They not only feed savoury cravings but also add to the Easter mood and they make for wonderful gifts during the holiday season.
