Those Cadbury mini eggs also come in white chocolate. LOVE them!

White chocolate isn't chocolate, so I've never been a fan.

I did, however, look in several stores yesterday for the Cadbury Dark Chocolate Mini Eggs, because I'd be all over that like flies on manure.

Sadly, I don't think they're available in Canada, as no one had them and looked at me like I was Janet From Another Planet when I asked.

If there was a holiday where you got a basket of cheese then I'd be more excited.

I feel somewhat the same way. Holloween is awesome because my kids typically get the candy I like so I take the dad tax to get my fill. I do like the robin eggs, but those are just candy shell coated whoppers and whoppers are better anyways.

You'll have to wait until January, I'm afraid...

I bought some white chocolate Dove eggs.
They are quite good. I swapped out my Dove Dark Chocolate promise with caramel and sea salt last night for one of the Dove white chocolate eggs. I don't regret that decision at all (except that I liked them too much, and there is a whole candy dish full of them calling my name). Dark chocolate Dove Promises with caramel and sea salt are my very favorite end of the day treat. I have tried every variety of dark chocolate since being on MFP, I always go back to the Promises. I am not a chocolate snob. I have tried the best chocolate, but always go back to Dove. It is a good thing they quit making the Dove truffle eggs for Easter, they were sinfully good, and truly my downfall.

I'm not a big candy eater (I hate jelly beans, Cadbury eggs, peeps, malted milk eggs), but I like peanut butter eggs (homemade or Reece's).

Found these and that are delicious. I love caramel so had to have them.
Sorry about the gigantic picture!!

Gold Brick Eggs and Sweetarts Bunnies Chicks and Ducks were my favorites.

Cadbury cream eggs and Cadbury mini eggs are my downfall and the reason why Easter is my favorite candy holiday.

I dearly love white chocolate and bought these last year, but found them to be disappointing. I prefer the regular milk chocolate mini eggs.

My husband is so sweet. Last year he jokingly asked me if I wanted an Easter basket, and for a moment my eyes lit up like a 5 year old. I quickly became embarrassed and told him no because I am adult darn it! He got me one with all my favorite candies and a few other choices anyway. Last week I had a horrible week taking care of the injured dog while my husband was out of town. Friday after work (he got back that morning) I came home to an Easter basket again filled with all my favorites I now know that Hershey's makes cookies and cream eggs which are delicious! I have happily been eating my way through it all this week while continuing to lose weight. Now I just need to decide if I will buy more (and how much) after it runs out this weekend since Easter only comes once a year

Lindt has a milk chocolate egg that's pretty nice. I like it a lot more than a non chocolate Cadbury creme egg

I'm just looking forward to the end of Lent so I can have some WINE!!!! I really really miss it (which I guess is the point lol! )

All about the peeps, after they have been properly hardened for about 1-2 days. Oh and the Reese's eggs.....love me some Reese's eggs.

Special mention for Cadbury Caramel Eggs, those are tasty too!

I can't do the creme eggs but the caramel and the chocolate creme eggs I am all over. Also reese's eggs. I also find the only appropriate time to eat reese's pieces are at Easter in those carrot looking packages. Any other time of year is no bueno.

I used to love Cadbury Cream Eggs - used to be a tradition that I'd get a couple at Easter and each one would take several minutes of digging out the insides bit by bit before eating the chocolate shell.

But something happened while I was in college, and suddenly I found them just completely inedible. Overpoweringly sweet, which is ironic because my replacement Easter candy is Peeps. At least I know what I like about them - it's the crunch of the sugar crust. I get one four-pack at Easter. They must be the chicks (bunnies are too small, although they're cuter), and that pack is gone the day I take my first bite of one.

The other thing I get are those tiny chocolate eggs with the speckled blue candy shell. I don't think they're tasty - the chocolate is a total throwaway, but they're pretty.

And, of course, my family always makes an Easter treat. Usually cupcakes, but we've done a full cake or panna cotta or pie before. That's the sweet that really worth eating
