The Ultimate Points® Guide to Easter Candy
Some hoppy news: Easter eggs and other seasonal candies can definitely fit into your Points Budget. (After all, it’s not every day of the year that foil-wrapped bunnies and neon-colored marshmallow chicks are on the menu!)
With a little planning, you can make room in your Budget for your Easter basket favorites: For example, you could begin your day with a low-Points value breakfast or brunch—maybe scramble some eggs and serve them with a fruit salad—and use your rollovers to enjoy the chocolate eggs you look forward to all year.
To get a sense of how many Points you’ll need to dip into your favorite treats, read on for the Points value of chocolate eggs and bunnies, jelly beans, and more.
