TYRONE, Pennsylvania, March 10, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- This year’s late Easter may spell trouble for procrastinating Easter Bunnies who don’t stock up on seasonal treats now.

Gardners Candies, which has been filling Easter baskets for 128 years, has advice for anyone who gives Easter treats: shop now. “A late Easter creates a real candy conundrum,” said Jim Westover, Gardner’s chief operating officer. “Consumers buy their chocolates and other treats early and end up eating them, then they have to find replacement basket candy at the last minute. It’s true – we see it whenever Easter falls late on the calendar!”
