I have seen big chocolate hollow easter rabbits in the stores in in California.  How big do you want them?

Well even though Mr Goodtime wasn't a halow bunny, I almost ordered him till I saw his price. For $85, he better be a good time! I have bought 10 pound chocolate bars for $40.

Having been diabetic since I was 6, my parents always put sugarfree candy and chocolate in my baskets. Back then, sugarfree stuff was nasty! No self-respecting adult would eat that stuff, let alone a child. Yuck! I never ate it, so I don't know why my parents kept buying the stuff.  :urcrazy;

I just sampled a sugarfree Peeps! Yuck!!! I had no idea they made such a thing. They're made with Splenda. I don't recommend them! We came to the conclusion that the marshmellow is very dense and the "sugar" coating feels and tastes like very fine sand.   :puke;

There is an excellent recipe on Martha Stewart's website to make you own peeps. They are hard to shape but are so so yummy. I made flowers instead using a cookie press and tinted my own sugar. I didn't make any this year, but they are so good.
