Easter chocolate is at the heart of many Easter activities, which can be an indulgent celebration of springtime and new life, regardless of religion and whether you gave up chocolate for Lent.
Either way, Easter games and crafts allow you to celebrate with children, friends and family at a time of year when (fingers crossed) the days are finally getting longer and brighter.
Kandy King have an extensive Easter chocolate range as part of our seasonal wholesale sweets and candy, and we’ve put together these Easter party ideas to help you make the most of the most chocolatey long weekend of the year!
Easter egg hunt
A traditional Easter trail is one of the most popular Easter garden games, and with individually wrapped chocolate eggs and plastic surprise eggs hidden around the garden, you can set up an Easter egg hunt in a matter of minutes.
If there’s a quiet woodland walk or riverbank near where you live, you could even take your Easter trail on the road – just be sure nobody else will spot your eggs before your kids find them, and tidy up after your Easter egg hunt so no litter or forgotten eggs are left behind.
You can buy eggs in bulk from Kandy King as part of our seasonal wholesale chocolate range, so there should be plenty for everyone to find!
Decorate the garden with chocolate tulips
Belgian milk chocolate tulips are a great seasonal addition to your Easter trail, and offer something a bit different from the traditional chocolate Easter eggs.
We sell packs of 20 as part of our wholesale Easter chocolate range, so again, you can dot these around the garden and wait for the kids to spot that your flowerbeds didn’t just bloom overnight.
Even better, if your garden is in bloom by Easter this year, you can insert individual chocolate tulips where they will blend in at first glance, for an extra surprise when somebody spots their brightly coloured foil wrappers.
Rice Krispies cakes
Making Rice Krispies cakes or Cornflakes cakes can be one of the best Easter activity ideas in heavy weather, bringing your Easter party indoors to the kitchen.
The recipe is easy – melt some chocolate, stir in your cereal (you can even use crumbled Shredded Wheat for a more realistic bird’s nest) then form into nest shapes in cupcake cases, and leave to set.
Decorate the nest with mini eggs, Easter chicks and flowers to complete the effect, and you’re done! This is an incredibly easy Easter craft that even the youngest members of your household can enjoy.
Make Easter baskets or Easter sweet jars
Easter sweet jars are a great seasonal pick ‘n’ mix alternative to a traditional Easter basket. Just take a jar and fill with seasonal Easter sweets like Easter bunnies, marshmallow flowers, jelly carrots and so on.
Kandy King sell a wide variety of Easter sweets and candies in bulk, so if you’re making gifts for friends and family – or to sell at an Easter craft fair, for example – you can get everything you need in a single order, at cash-and-carry prices.
Why buy wholesale Easter sweets?
Easter is an unashamedly indulgent time after the fasting of Lent, and any Easter trail or Easter egg hunt is more fun the more things there are to find!
Kandy King’s wholesale Easter sweets include traditional Easter eggs and Mini Eggs, seasonal pick ‘n’ mix jellies and marshmallows, Belgian milk chocolate tulips and more, at wholesale prices.
Whether you’re in the trade and putting together Easter sweet jars and Easter chocolate hampers to resell, or you’re planning an Easter party for your kids and their friends at home, there’s no easier way to get your hands on everything in one single order from a supplier you can trust.
