Store-Bought Vegan Easter Candy (Quick Guide)

If you need a few easy wins or want to round out some Easter baskets, there are definitely some solid vegan Easter candy options out there!

First, save yourself from Googling “vegan Easter candy near me” in a panic and just bookmark our full Vegan Candy Guide. It’s a lifesaver for figuring out which classic candies are “accidentally” vegan (perfect for last-minute Easter treats or filling baskets without overthinking it).

Here are a few Easter-specific options to look out for:

Enjoy Life White Chocolate Chips – If you’re craving that classic Easter white chocolate vibe, these are dairy-free, allergy-friendly, and so good. You can swap them for the regular chocolate chips into any of the vegan Easter dessert recipes below for a white chocolate twist!
Vegan Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups – Reese’s now makes a plant-based version, and you can often find the mini ones in stores like ShopRite. Perfect for baskets or snacking!
Goldenberg’s Peanut Chews (Dark Chocolate) – A nostalgic favorite that’s accidentally vegan (just make sure you grab the dark chocolate version). Bonus: They’re local to the Northeast Philly area!
Oat Milk Chocolate Bunnies (Walmart) – Yes! Since 2025, Walmart carries a vegan version of the classic chocolate bunny under their private-label Bettergoods brand.
Vegan “Peeps” Alternatives – Traditional Peeps aren’t vegan. As of 2026 however, the brand Good Mallow is offering a gelatin-free Peeps alternative, so keep your eyes out! Our friend Monica from Hidden Veggies also has a homemade vegan Peeps recipe.
