Easter Is Just Around The Corner….

March 15, 2010

The year is flying by so fast. As soon as Christmas ended, I was ordering for Valentine’s Day; and the day after Valentine’s Day, I was ordering for Easter — which is now less than 3 weeks away (Sunday, April 4th). Crazy! Of course, crazy isn’t necessarily bad: few things bring me the kind of excitement that getting new candy does. I think David, our UPS guy, thinks I’m a little off, as I sometimes clap when I see him approaching the store. Easter is pastel and pretty and, in the case of the candy we sell, delicious! I mean, just look at some of the candy in these pictures…how cute can candy possibly be? Some stand-outs this year: milk chocolate and caramel robins’ eggs; sour gummi bunnies (the purple ones taste like grape Bubble Yum!); handmade chocolate-covered marshmallows; Papabubble’s adorable hard candy “barnyard” mix (did you see the pigs’ faces?!); and real Cadbury Creme Eggs — meaning the ones from the UK, not the ones made by and with Hershey’s chocolate. As you probably know by now, I’m also a bit of a marzipan fanatic — if you are too, you’ll want to pick up a box of our marzipan ”chicks and eggs.” We have beautiful Easter boxes (wicker is soooo 2009) jam-packed with delicious treats, or you can customize your own for a gift that is sure to please anyone. My only advice to you is not to wait until the last minute, because I can’t stand to see disappointed faces: Easter is our second busiest holiday season, so stock up as soon as you’re able. Happy spring, and we’ll see you soon!
