Last updated 4 days ago | Originally Published: March 27, 2025

If you’re hunting down the best Easter candy before the holiday, you just discovered it all. Our list is only the tip of the carrot; a starting point or sneak peek into what you’ll find here at Candy Retailer! We currently have over 200 Easter candy products currently in stock, just waiting for you to hop to it and scoop it up before it’s all gone! 

With nearly a decade in the candy business, I can say from experience that I’ve seen more people wait until the last minute to buy holiday candy and settle for whatever remains as Easter Sunday becomes Monday morning. It happens every year. So, whatever you do, don’t be the person who waits until the night before Easter to do all your holiday candy shopping! 

I personally picked the selection listed below. Since I’m in the house and know what we have in stock and what sells the best, I figured I’d be one to help you find all the best Easter candy and save you some time and money in the process. Unfortunately, I cannot list everything we have in stock; otherwise, we’d be here until after Easter, but this is my invitation to explore all our Easter candy, just waiting for you to discover! 

Easter Candy Jelly Beans

First and foremost, we can’t talk about Easter candy without mentioning jelly beans! I get it; not everyone loves jelly beans, but an easter basket without them just isn’t complete! Luckily for you and me, we carry one of the biggest selections of jelly beans anywhere online! Of course, you may find more personal brands on other major marketplace sites, you know the ones, but what you find on those other sites is our prices! 

For starters, I would definitely consider our branded jelly beans! We carry all colors and flavors and have several bulk-size package options, including 1lb, 2lb, and even 5lb bags and jars! In addition to our brand, we also carry several other major brands, such as Jelly Belly, Canels, Dare Foods, Just Born, Sunrise, Sweetarts, and Brachs! We also have a wild-tasting selection of Harry Potter jelly beans in every flavor! Click below to discover them all. 

Dare Foods Easter Candy

Dare Foods is a Canadian-based brand established in 1892 and has grown from a small Ontario grocery into a family-owned giant with facilities across Canada and the United States. Famous for its forever-growing range of snacks, including cookies, crackers, fine breads, and candies, Dare is recognized for its quality foods and innovation, distributing products throughout North America and over 50 countries. 

We also love their Easter candy lineup, which features seasonal candies like assorted jelly beans, Easter color gumdrops, Bunny Rabbit Jubes, and Easter egg-shaped sour and speckled jelly beans in pastel colors. These one-of-a-kind candies are all available by the pound here at Candy Retailer! So, if you’re on the hunt to fill your Easter baskets with the best Easter Candy, Dare Foods is an excellent starting point. 

Easter Candy by R.M. Palmer Company

R.M. Palmer Company is a Pennsylvania-based candy maker that has carved out a sweet spot in the Easter candy world with its cherished chocolate candies. Made in the USA, this family-owned brand has become a holiday tradition, churning out affordable Easter candy millions of people enjoy. Known for its playful shapes and original flavors, Palmer’s lineup is a go-to for bulk buys and Easter basket candy stuffing!

That said, Palmers offers foil-wrapped chocolate bunnies by the pound, Palmer Double Bunny Crisps, Chocolate Double Crisp Carrots, and Easter Chocolate Flavored Eggs, just to name a few. You’ll find all these products and much more from this brand here at Candy Retailer. We understand that not everyone is a fan of Palmer chocolate, but it’s one of the best-selling Easter candy brands in the United States, so they must be doing something right. 

Reppert’s Easter Nonpareils

Reppert’s Candy was founded in 1945 by Floyd and Dorothy Reppert in Pennsylvania and has been a family-owned business led by the Schell family since 1978. Based in Oley Township, this American brand has built a reputation for producing high-quality, affordable candies using premium local ingredients, like Wilbur Chocolates.

As for our favorite holiday treats from this brand, Reppert’s Easter Nonpareils are always a big hit in our candy store, especially the milk chocolate ones, which feature smooth milk chocolate drops coated in colorful, crunchy pastel sprinkles. Perfect for Easter baskets or holiday snacking, these treats embody springtime joy and are available by the pound here at Candy Retailer.

Zachary Easter Candy

Zachary Candy was launched in 1950 by John Zachary in Frankfort, Indiana, and is a family-driven American outfit that has been dishing out sweets for generations. From its US base, this brand pumps out goodies like chocolates, candy corn, and jellies. With a knack for holiday treats, Zachary has become a familiar name in Easter baskets and seasonal candy stashes, offering bulk options that make stocking up a breeze.

However, their Easter candy lineup is where they shine, offering Easter-themed candy corn in soft pastel shades, sanded Easter jellies, assorted mallow creme candies that melt in your mouth, and sour jelly candies that everyone seems to love. You can purchase Zachary’s here at Candy Retailer by the pound and have it shipped to your home just in time for Easter Sunday!

My favorite Easter Candy Picks

Going forward, I’ll only list personally selected Easter candy products now available in our store. The listings above were more broad and expected, but the list below will focus primarily on individual candies I know about. My goal is to create an organized and detailed list. We have over 15,000 products here at Candy Retailer, so it can sometimes be a challenge to find the best candies without going through a ton of products. 

PEZ Easter Bunny Dispenser

How could I ever pass on the PEZ Easter Bunny Dispenser? Not only is this a limited-edition collector’s item, but it’s also perfectly aligned with the holiday! I don’t know about you guys, but I love PEZ candy, so this one shoots right up to the top of my list, followed by more PEZ Candy! We also have an entire category dedicated to PEZ dispensers, which you can check out here. 

PEZ Candy

As promised, more PEZ Candy! Here at Candy Retailer, we offer a one-of-a-kind selection of this iconic candy! We carry all traditional and sour flavors, wrapped and unwrapped, in bulk-size, 1lb resealable jars! So, if you or someone you know loves PEZ Candy and would love to see their Easter basket filled with it, click below and bring it home! We ship nationwide! 

Taffy Delight Assorted Salt Water Taffy

This one was just too darn easy for me! So, if you love Salt Water Taffy as much as I do or know somebody special who does, it gets no better than Taffy Delight. I selected the 1lb assorted jar because it’s colorful and full of sweet surprises! However, with nearly 100 flavors to select from, you can create the mixes of your choice!

Cadbury Creme Eggs

It goes without debate that Cadbury Creme Eggs are one of America’s most popular Easter candies, right after jelly beans! Now, a few of you may disagree, and that’s okay, but the truth is evident every Easter! Unfortunately, these sell out very fast as nobody stocks them as much as they do jelly beans, so you’ll want to hop on these ASAP, like right now! 

Putmans Opera Cream

Chosen for their luxurious appeal, Putman’s Opera Cremes features a creamy center and rich chocolate coating. They’re a sophisticated addition to any Easter basket, perfect for those who love gourmet confections! This iconic Cincinnati-based brand is made by Papa’s Candies, so if you’re into supporting locally owned, all-American brands for Easter, this is the one! 

Speckled Chocolate Almonds

As always, I’ll be honest with you, but I selected these Speckled Chocolate Almonds because I love them! In fact, I’d rather have a whole basket full of them than jelly beans! At the same time, these look like little easter eggs and are even color-coated in traditional Easter pastels, which makes them a must-have if you ask me! We sell them by the pound, so there’s plenty to go around. 

Rito Easter Conversation Eggs

Like conversation hearts, these are pastel-colored conversation candy eggs! With messages like Hop To It, Cotton Tail, Egg Splurge, Hop Around, and Bunny Call, to name a few, I just couldn’t leave them out. So, if you’re like me and appreciate conversation candy, pick up a 1lb bag(s) below, let us know where it’s going, and we’ll see you soon, before Easter! 

Speckled Malted Milk Eggs

So that everyone knows, I’m being 100%  fair here. That said, I just couldn’t pass up on traditional speckled malted chocolate milk eggs, which I don’t even like! However, I know that millions of people disagree with my taste buds, so in the case of this candy, the majority wins, which is why it’s one of the best Easter candies of all time! What do you think?  

Easter Yogurt Frosted Pretzels

Packaged and distributed by none other than Candy Retailer, these Easter yogurt-frosted pretzels really take Easter candy to a whole new level. They’re not a candy type but an excellent addition to any Easter candy dish! Or you can just put them on display, as they come in a 1lb clear, resealable jar! Best of all, they’re delicious, and everyone loves them! So, if that’s you, pick up a jar below and never settle for less! 

Hershey’s Milk Chocolate Kisses with Vanilla Frosting

Once again, Hershey’s is another brand I couldn’t ignore! Not everyone will agree, which is okay, but when it comes to filling Easter baskets and candy dishes, nothing says I love you like Hershey’s Kisses, especially those filled with vanilla frosting like these ones! I just tried these the other day, and I love ‘em! They’ll definitely be going in this year’s Easter baskets! 

Charms Blow Pops

I agree that these aren’t your traditional Easter candies; however, I think they are for many of us! If my memory serves me right, I can definitely remember getting Charms Blow Pops in my Easter basket as a kid back in the ‘80s. Aside from that, they come in several flavors, and adding them to an Easter basket creates a splash of colors! If you agree, check out all our flavors here at Candy Retailer! 

Starburst Cotton Candy

Now that we’ve gone through all the traditional Easter Candy, I decided to throw this one in there because, well, why not? It’s Starburst Cotton Candy! Imagine if you were a kid and you found a bag of pink cotton candy in your Easter basket; I assume it would be pretty exciting, which is why I’ll be adding some to this year’s Easter baskets! How about you?
