LACTOSE FREE EASTER CANDY!

Hi guys! Just thought I'd post about how to find GREAT Easter candy that's lactose free! There's still time if you need to buy an Easter basket!

Jordan almonds: these are candy coated with a hard shell. They're really hard so keep them away from very small children. They're usually lactose free and usually consist of the almond, coconut, corn syrup and artificial flavorings.



Jelly beans: same as above, they're usually always lactose free. You can try Jelly Belly (from a previous post) or any other the flavors and varieties that come out at Easter time!


Marshmallow candy (such as Peeps): again these are usually lactose free and made of sugar, colorings and flavorings.

 
 
And finally, bubble gum eggs!
 
 

 
Sometimes, you can find dark chocolate bunnies that don't contain milk products, but you have to check every label to make sure.
 
I hope you enjoyed this post and HAVE A GREAT EASTER!
