Brach’s Chicks & Rabbits Marshmallow Candy
I picked up Brach’s Chicks & Rabbits Marshmallow Candy which features their new logo and package design. It promises that this is An Easter Basket Favorite on the front and on the back of the package it says that This chewy, banana flavored candy is perfect for sharing with family and friends.
They come in two shapes and three colors: orange, yellow and blue. The Rabbits look like grey aliens, with their large vacant eyes. The Chicks (not pictured) look like some sort of fetal creature. At first I thought I just got a bad handful, but I dumped the whole bag out and they all looked like that. So I’ll stick with the Rabbits.
These were soft and fresh, but I usually prefer my Circus Peanuts a little firmer and slightly tacky so they’re quite chewy. But my interest level in these is not high enough to invest in the preparation required (leaving them out with the bag open) to get them that way. These marshmallow type candies are the pre-cursor to the marbits found in sweetened breakfast cereals, so you can always cut them up with some scissors, let them dry in a warm oven and add them to your plain Cheerios or Chex for an added boost. Otherwise, I recommend using the bunnies as decorations and possibly using the chicks for experiments (they’re just so ugly). Related Candies

Those things are the opposite of cute. Are they aliens?
Didn’t they used to come in more colors, like pink?
Mmmmm…LOVE Circus Peanuts so I will like these. Ha! they do look like aliens.
They DO look weird, but they are so tasty! Of all of the Easter candies, this is the one that I have to ration out to myself (as otherwise, I will eat the whole bag in one sitting). YUM.
I saw these at the La Mirade, California, CVS/pharmacy(sic tm) drugstore!
PS I meant to put in La MIRADA, not La MIRADE. Anyway, Easter is my favorite candy holiday,too
