For Americans, Easter is a great excuse to indulge in sweets. It is so much so that only during Christmas do they consume more candy than this month. This is a very sweetalicious period of the year for all American Candy aficionados, and we have some factoids for you. As well as a 22% discount on all pouches and gift boxes. Check out our Easter Candy Facts!

You eat … how much?

In 2021 Americans bought $823 million worth of crème-filled eggs, chocolate and coloured marshmallow chicks. In fact, it all amounts to 66.2 million kg or 473 blue whales.

Got room for a bargain?

Despite the fact that Americans love their Easter candy and spend a lot of money on it, they love a bargain too. Statista found that 26% of its respondents bought reduced-price candy after Easter.

More Candy than Halloween

For candy sales, Halloween is the obvious favourite, but Easter usually ends up in the first place. Easter candy sales were $3.04 billion in 2021, which was significantly higher than the $2.4 billion spent on Halloween candy in 2020.

Aren’t those too many bunnies?

Take a guess at how many chocolate bunnies are produced on Easter. 1 million? Maybe 10? It is actually more than 91 million chocolate bunnies that are made every year. A gobsmacking figure if you ask me.
