Easter Bunny Corn

Candy corn has always been one of those candies that you don’t know you miss… until you can’t have it. Traditional candy corn typically contains gelatin, albumen, beeswax and honey (which I don’t mind, since I eat honey), so it had been a looong time since I devoured a handful.

Luckily for me, Jelly Belly came out with an awesome Easter candy corn this year called Bunny Corn and since I love Jelly Belly in general, I just had to try it for myself!

Not to mention, PETER RABBIT is on the package! Cmon, who could resist that?

I love the cute little Peter Rabbit toon on the front-- it brings me back!
The colors also added a lovely touch.

The flavor of the Bunny Corn was quite unique– it didn’t taste like regular candy corn, actually, much better! The consistency was nice and creamy. Like it said on the package, it tasted like a “mellocreme,” like a marshmallow/candy corn hybrid.

Taste:  

If the small little 3 oz. package didn’t cost $2.95 + tax, I would probably be stuffing my face with these everyday. Probably a good thing it’s more expensive– it’s a special treat just for Easter.

Price:   (quite pricey)

Scoop a few... or a bunch... up before they hop away!

For a colorful vegan Easter, don’t miss these cute little bunny corn treats. Much better than those yucky Cadbury Eggs!

Spare a bunny this easter! Eat bunny corn.

The second NYC Vegetarian Food Festival kicked off this weekend and I had a lot of fun! Sampling, talking to vendors and overall meeting like-minded vegetarian folk made slogging through the crowds all worthwhile. Thankfully, unlike last year’s overcrowded venue, it was a lot easier to actually talk to vendors as well as taste the […]

Café Blossom has an earthy, modern ambiance, accented by touches of dark mahogany upon a […]

Pure Food & Wine

So after many stellar recommendations and reviews, I finally decided to schlep my ass over to the folks at Pure Food & Wine and see what the ruckus was about. Sadly, not much it seems! First off, I had mixed feelings about coming to this restaurant since I actually do not really enjoy eating raw […]
