Looking for Chocolate Lollipops

I am looking for small inexpensive packs of chocolate lollipops.

I want to make an Easter "Snowman Soup" and thought I could replace the candy cane of the soup for a chocolate lolly.

I have heard it called Easter Broth - but I am not too keen on the name -
so i would also welcome name ideas as well

I had thought of Bunny Brew?

    I used icecube trays and filled with chocolate. Then stuck lollipop sticks in the centre when half set x

  • They sell them in most supermarkets.
    Especially around easter and christmas, which are themed, and other times of the year there are usually disney ones around.

    Lidl did some lovely choloclate lollies at Christmas - 10 in a row in the shape of Santas - they may still have some left? haven't been lately. If not the Easter versions shouldn't be long (Creme Eggs on Boxing Day, grrrrrr...)

    not sure what kind of thing you were thinking of but found these:

    The Easter Feeling

    The Easter feeling does not end.
    It signals a new beginning,
    Of nature, spring, and brand new life,
    And friendship, peace, and giving.
    The spirit of Easter is all about
    Hope, love, and joyful living.

    Easter Bunny Hugs And Kisses

    That cute little bunny has hopped all day,
    delivering baskets for the holiday.
    His paws are so tired and his nose how it itches,
    He left you something special to fulfill all your wishes-
    Lots of cute little Easter bunny hugs and kisses.
