1. Peeps Stuffies
There’s no denying that the fluffy, sugary, marshmallow-y Peeps candy are delicious, but at what cost? Consumer Reports found that Peeps, specifically the pink and red colored candies, have red dye No. 3 as an ingredient, which is “a known carcinogen,” according to the nonprofit. So while it may be tempting, it’s best to go with these adorable Peep stuffies instead. Cute and cuddly, they’ll last much longer than a marshmallow candy anyways! You can find these at your local Walmart for less than $3, but hurry! They won’t be in stock for long!

2. Peeps Rice Krispie Treats
This sweet treat also comes from Peeps, but you don’t have to worry about any red dye with these ones. These are flavored exactly like Rice Krispie Treats, but have that soft and chewy feel of a Peep marshmallow candy. You can get 10 Peep chicks for $8.99, so if you’re thinking of taking advantage of this Easter deal, head over to Walmart ASAP, because the reviews for this dessert are 5 stars all around!
“I don’t know how they did it,” wrote one verified customer in a review. “But the taste is spot on!”
“These are so delicious roasted over a fire!” another customer said.

3. Haribo Sour Easter Grass
Whew! No more filling Easter baskets with those plastic green strips that never seem to leave the house. Walmart just stocked sour Easter grass from Haribo: sour, gummy strips of chewy candy that can perfectly replace the plastic alternatives. It’s better for the environment, and becomes part of the Easter basket treats, rather than becoming a giant mess. Don’t miss out on these delicious (and functional!) candies!

4. Chocolate Covered Pretzel Nests
Another item that’s perfect for an Easter basket are these adorable chocolate covered Pretzel Nests from Maud Borup. The “nest” part is made of chocolate covered pretzels, and settled inside are three colorful eggs, made to look just like a bird’s nest. The eggs are that perfect pastel so they look cute inside of an Easter basket—plus they’re totally delish. You can get three palm-sized pretzel nests for just 5 dollars at your local Walmart, but they’ll only be available for the Easter season! Stock up while you can!

5. Sour Patch Kids Jelly Beans
Of course, you can’t talk about Easter baskets without talking about jelly beans. Sour Patch Kids make the most delicious sour jelly beans, and they come in all the fun colors: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and pink. A large bag of them will fill so many Easter eggs to nestle into an Easter basket, or fill a glass jar to set out on the counter to nibble on throughout the day. This is another item that will only be available as long as Easter is coming up, so if you’re a year-round jelly bean kind of person, stock up now!

6. Bunny Ears Tumblers
These adorable cups are another perfect addition to an Easter basket. You can get them in three different colors—pink, blue, and cold—and they all come with star-shaped glitter encased around the cup. Complete with bunny-eared tops and a plastic straw, you can fill these with any candy you like and it will complete an Easter gift. Plus, they’re less than $6! Parents are already planning their Easter baskets around these finds: “Cute!!” one user wrote in a comment on Instagram. “Great for Easter baskets!”

It’s never too early to start a mug collection…

9. Pillsbury Chick Sugar Cookies
We saved the best for last: Pillsbury sugar cookies. This delicious cookie dough makes the 12 minutes they take to cook in the oven feel like an eternity, that is, if the dough survives the time it takes for the oven to preheat. These sugar cookies are a cult favorite, and they just dropped the Easter-themed design: an adorable yellow chick popping out of a pink egg. These items never stay in stock for very long, so if you see them, you should grab them, because you can’t guarantee they’ll be back in stock for long enough to grab a second box!
