Reese’s Drops New Unwrapped Peanut Butter Mini Eggs
It’s not Easter yet, but Reese’s is gearing up for the holiday with a new edition of their famous Peanut Butter Eggs. “The new product, called Reese’s Peanut Butter Mini Cups Unwrapped, will be sold in 8-ounce bags and will be, as their name indicates, unwrapped for easy and convenient snacking,” stated the Hershey Company.
The company is no stranger to limited-time seasonal candies. They’ve created Peanut Butter Roses for Valentine’s Day, Peanut Butter Pumpkins for Halloween, and tree-shaped peanut butter treats for the winter holiday season. (Unfortunately for the brand, a consumer claimed she was deceived because the wrapper showed the Peanut Butter pumpkins with a nose and mouth like a Jack-o-lantern. However, the actual candy does not have a nose and mouth. The lawsuit has yet to be settled. It also extended to other Reese’s products with a picture on the front that doesn’t precisely match the candy inside.)
Reese’s Summer Olympic Medal Treats
Reese is dropping a summer shape shaped like an Olympic medal to honor the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris. Instagram’s Snackolator posted photos of the packaging with the message that the new shape is coming soon.
“The only medals that I’m training for this summer are new Reese’s Medals that are coming out for the Paris 2024 Olympics!” the voice behind Snacklator wrote in the post. They added, “I love watching them and will chow down some Reese’s Medals with pride and delight when the USA wins.”
The outside of the packaging shown on the Instagram photo shows lines carved into the candy, so it better resembles an Olympic medal than if the chocolate coating was all smooth.
One person jokingly wrote, “Someone’s going to bite into this and file a lawsuit because it’s not an actual ‘medal,'” Another person shared that they saw them at their local Walmart.
Easter Fun For Grown-Ups: Adult Basket Ideas
Some Easter activities like egg hunts and egg-and-spoon races may make you feel a bit old. Many us really feel this in our knees and lower back! But there’s one thing everyone can participate in around Easter, which is Easter baskets. Those baskets full of treats aren’t just for the kids. Adults can easily get in on the fun by exchanging some of the best gifts.
No, you didn’t outgrow sweet treats and presents.
Finding little or big trinkets for an adult Easter basket is not challenging at all. You just have to tap into the hobbies and interests of the person you’re gifting the basket to, whether it’s beauty finds or fun tech gadgets.
Many people took to Reddit to share what they have gifted a friend or loved one in an Easter basket. One person said they put beef jerky chips, candy, a variety of mini sauce bottles, and mini liquor in their husband’s basket. Another person said, “Small potted plants, lotion, soap, gum, liquor, pens, socks, jerky, sunglasses, earbuds, nail clippers.”
If you’re preparing a basket for someone who loves all things social media, there are plenty of DIY videos floating around platforms like TikTok and Instagram. There’s a page from a TikTok user, The Creative Chick, who shared a simple DIY last year. Her basket included wine, Easter-themed candy, chips, and a fun tumbler cup.
When it comes to filling an adult Easter basket, you don’t necessarily have to break the bank either. Some people opt for inexpensive items from Target’s Bullseye’s Playground, formally the Target Dollar Spot. It’s the section of Target located near the front of your local store right as you walk in. Of course, there are options like Five Below, the dollar store, or online via Amazon. You’re pretty much covered on shopping options whether you’re looking for big or small items for your basket.
