Get ready for a serious sugar rush ‘cause Americans are expected to devour over 73-million pounds of chocolate this Easter, according to research from food giant Cargill. That’s enough to craft hundreds of millions of chocolate bunnies, fill over 146-million baskets, and rack up more than $2-billion in sales. Milk chocolate is hands-down the crowd favorite, but adventurous sweet tooths are also reaching for wild flavor mashups like spicy, salty, and sour. Whether it’s nostalgia or novelty, classic chocolate bunnies and creamy Cadbury eggs or something entirely new, this year’s Easter candy game is looking to be next level.
