hi was just in shopko and they have a low carb easter candy now should be good

they also made sugar free valentine chocolate filled hearts........ ( too bad my boyfriend bought the PURE sugar ones!!! UGH ::smack:: )

I bought the Gummy Bears yesterday.

what kind of easter candy did they have?

peanut butter eggs, some other kinds of eggs, jelly beans all kinds of yummy looking stuff

The PB eggs are yummmmy! For the moment, it's nice to be able to get a single serving of SF chocolate and PB from Russell Stover (i.e. without having to buy a whole bag of PB cups!)

Russel Stover makes this awesome thing called chocolate mousse medallions...if you can find them, BUY them...oh my, are they ever good! it comes with two pieces and i just finished one! unfortunately, i ate the other last monday! boo hoo....i want more!

Freckles,

Think twice before giving SF candy to ANYONE, especially kids. The sugar alcohols could make them explode if they eat it like "normal" candy. If we (forum members) have trouble limiting our consumption of sugar alcohols sometimes (and pay the price we know we'll pay), think what could happen to a child.

However, I'll be sure to buy some and make a basket for DH and I.

are these easter items marketed as the low carb russell stover or the sugar free russell stover? i was looking on their website and only saw sugar free easter candy..

Probably sugar free. I've never bought the low carb candy because it costs quite a bit more. Does it taste different/better?

Don't forget to support your local candy store. They have great SF candy and you can get real bunnies for the basket. Our store has SF cows, ducks, all sorts of things for Easter. They've had a large SF section for diabetics for years. Now I bet most of the candy is bought by low carbers.
