Good news! You can now get Easter candy for 50% off since the holiday has since passed. I know I have always loved indulging in Easter sweets since I was a little girl. It felt almost like Christmas waking up on Easter morning to see what the Easter Bunny had brought me in my basket. I would rip open my jellybeans and Peeps right away. Think about what Easter candy you snacked on this weekend and continue reading to see what it says about you.

jellybeans

Now, jellybeans are a classic in any Easter basket. I’m sure we all received these as little kids. If jellybeans are your favorite, you are traditional, but you can be sour at times. You have many different personality traits that shine through in various situations, just like the flavors of jellybeans. Everyone likes you, and you are very reliable in your relationships.

peeps

If Peeps are your favorite, you like to go against the grain. You don’t care what others think about you because you are confident in the person you are. You attract people in your life who deeply care about you. You prefer quality over quantity when it comes to friends. It is people like you who make great leaders and create actual change in the world.

Peeps!
chocolate bunny

Chocolate bunnies are also a traditional choice. Who doesn’t love chocolate shaped into an adorable animal? It makes it more fun to eat! If these are your fav, you go big or go home. Why have one Hershey’s Kiss when you can have a whole solid chocolate bunny? You either attempt projects in life one bite at a time or all at once. You are a go-getter and aren’t afraid to chase after your ambitions.

cadbury mini eggs

The brand Cadbury is famous for its Easter goodies. Since the outer candy eggshell is tougher than the sweet chocolate inside, you are often hard to ‘crack.’ You have to feel very comfortable with someone to open up and reveal all sides of yourself to them. You place your trust strategically. You are a very wise person with a lot of experiences you love to share with others to provide advice. On the inside, you are a very rich and deep person.

reese’s peanut butter eggs

Okay, who doesn’t love a good peanut butter egg at Easter? (Well… actually me because I am severely allergic). But, if you are able to enjoy these, you are officially a cool kid. Reese’s eggs taste better than their other holiday-shaped alternatives. Since they contain peanuts, you can be a little nutty and silly at times. People are attracted to your outgoing personality.

easter m&m’s

Maybe you are a simple person and like the different-colored M&M’s for every holiday. You like to stay in your comfort zone. You like a candy you can snack on in little segments. You enjoy the simple things in life and do not often indulge in the finer things. You are very positive and find joy in almost every situation. You are the person to brighten a friend’s rough day. You are widely liked by everyone because you have a sweet aura about you.
