Although it might sound strange, there's nothing like biting into a bunny on Easter Sunday—a chocolate bunny, that is! From unwrapping its adorable foil wrapper to savoring its sweet flavor, the entire chocolate bunny experience is a pleasure from beginning to end.

To make things even sweeter, the nostalgic Easter treat has multiplied like bunnies before our eyes (at least in flavor)! There are so many variations of chocolate bunnies, including dark, white, and cookies and cream! And while some traditional milk chocolate bunnies may be hollow, there are tons of solid options on the market, along with those stuffed with peanut butter, caramel, and even Rice Krispies cereal, that are just as ear-resistible! To guide you through this extensive selection of sweet Easter candies, we've curated a list of the finest chocolate bunnies available for purchase. However, we must warn you—they might not last until Easter dinner!

But first, how did these quirky chocolate bunnies come to be? The exact origins of the Easter bunny are unclear, but some sources say German immigrants brought the legend of an egg-laying hare called "Osterhase" or "Oschter Haws" to Pennsylvania in the 17th century. Children would make nests for the hare's decorated eggs, and eventually they started to include chocolate bunny figurines, which also originated in Germany. To follow with the Easter tradition, add a few chocolate bunnies along with chocolate eggs to your little ones Easter baskets this year. Or just gift them solo to your favorite chocolate lover. They make delightful Easter gifts for kids and Easter gifts for adults alike. I mean, how could they not? They're just as adorable as they are delicious!
