The popular Japanese candy, HI-CHEW offers real fruit flavors. From traditional flavors like grape or banana to new flavors like Acai or a tropical mix, these candies can make a colorful addition to any basket.
If you are looking to keep to the egg theme, Kinder Joy can be a great option. While not Easter candy per se, it is shaped like an egg. More importantly, that creamy chocolate and crunchy wafer come with a toy, too. It is like two treats in one.
