The Favorite Easter Candy in Washington Isn’t a Chocolate Bunny

Easter is around the corner and while you may be celebrating the day in church but others will spend the day hunting for eggs and eating candy. While there are hundreds of different choices for Easter candy the number one favorite in the country is probably your favorite.

YOU JUST CAN'T GET ENOUGH OF THE REESE'S PEANUT BUTTER EGGS

The number one spot belongs to Reese’s Peanut Butter Eggs. Sure we buy marshmallow Peeps and plenty of chocolate bunnies but apparently we absolutely love Reese’s Peanut Butter Eggs. In fact information from the folks at Door Dash and Instacart shows Reese’s Peanut Butter Eggs are the biggest sellers nationwide.

IT'S BECAUSE YOU GET A MOUTH FULL OF PEANUT BUTTER

There's good reason why we love the Reese’s Peanut Butter Eggs and the peanut butter Halloween pumpkins are full of peanut butter. In fact the ratio of peanut butter to chocolate is much larger in the seasonal candy than the everyday candy on the shelf.

SO ARE THE EGGS A FAVORITE IN WA STATE? NOPE!

Now while people around the nation love the Reese’s Peanut Butter Eggs we here in Washington state prefer a different filled chocolate egg: The Cadbury Creme Egg. Are you a fan of the Cadbury? Many people love the sweet and salty taste of the peanut butter eggs but you won't get that in the creme egg. It's pretty much sweet from the beginning to the end. Too sweet for some not sweet enough for others.

So now you know what to look for in that Easter basket and we all know what candy you'll be eating first. Whether you celebrate Easter in Church or at home with chocolate...Happy Easter.
