Easter Candy Bark

Leftover Easter candy isn’t really a problem in my house. Leftover candy of any kind isn’t really a problem, in fact.

I’ve told you before I am obsessed with candy of all kinds.

So if I don’t have leftover candy in the house, I panic.

Easter Candy Bark

Because sometimes all of us crave jelly beans in October. You might not have a super-secret stash hidden from the rest of the family, but I do, because jelly beans are not to be messed around with.

My pantry is stocked with bag after bag of candy. Jelly Belly is a favorite, Williams-Sonoma has awesome sweets, and I have discovered a serious weakness for Starburst jelly beans.

Easter Candy Bark

I am pretty much literally a kid in a candy store . . . in my own house. How awesome is that???

But in case you have leftover Easter candy that you want to use up, make this Easter Candy Bark.

Easter Candy Bark

It is gluten free, no bake, ridiculously easy to make, and super versatile. Feel free to use whatever chocolate you want, as well as any candies. This is your creation. It’s such a great thing to make with kids too.

I hope you all have a great Easter and indulge in a little Easter candy!

    I don’t have a secret stash of jelly beans but I do have a big container of seasonal M&Ms/chips that would be perfect for your bark, Laura. Is there really such a thing as leftover candy? I think not. It’s just candy we haven’t eaten yet.

    Soooo cute, Laura! Yes, the candy. AND your habit of stashing jelly beans away from the parents =) When you live in LA, you’ll have to go to Gelson’s in Marina del Rey which has a half-row of jelly bean canisters. (Believe it’s the jelly belly kind.) Conversely, I’ll have to check out Williams-Sonoma =) Happy Easter!

It's such a reminder of the great work the charity does. I can't wait for Balloon Wonderland next year, and you should keep a look out for it as well as other events put on to benefit Give Kids the World Village 🌎
