Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

1. Plan ahead. The first thing parents of a peanut allergy sufferer must do is plan ahead. Filling an Easter basket with nut free chocolate candy is not something that can be accomplished during one trip to the store. Finding a nut free chocolate candy Easter bunny can be a challenge.

2. Research candy companies. Many candy companies are kind enough to list their nutritional information online and any allergens that would affect someone with food allergies (peanut allergy or other) are likely mentioned in the ingredients. Use the website as a starting point, but always call the candy company as well and double check to be sure that the nut free chocolate candy Easter bunny (or whatever else) is safe for someone with a nut allergy.

3. Get to know some of the nut free candy and snacks company sites.
   Peanut Free Planet offers peace of mind and a world of options to anyone trying to find a nut free chocolate candy for Easter that is truly nut free and thus safe for someone with a nut allergy. In addition to nut free chocolate candy, Peanut Free Planet offers all kinds of other food items for nut allergy sufferers.
   Vermont Nut Free Chocolates offers a wide variety of nut free chocolate treats and they specialize in chocolate.
   Divvies dot com is another great source for nut free chocolate candy and other kinds of nut free candy in addition to chocolate.

4. Put your order in early. Smaller candy companies who are highly specialized such as a nut free candy company will not have the same inventory as a large corporation. When the nut free candy and snacks are gone, they are gone!

Tips & Warnings

• Always, always, always double and even triple check the ingredients of everything you give to someone with a nut allergy or any other food allergy even if the item was purchased from a allergy free store.
