    Celiac.com 04/08/2022 - With so many special candy products on the market for Easter, knowing which Easter candies are gluten-free can be challenging. 

    To help make your selection easier and more worry-free, Celiac.com has put together our most up-to-date list of Gluten-free and Gluten-safe Candy for Easter, and Kosher gluten-free candies for Passover.  

    Celiac.com Sponsor (A12):
    We've also included our lists of SAFE and UNSAFE, NON–gluten–free candies, along with a partial list of major candy makers with links to their company websites. 

    Although we strive to make the list as thorough as possible, it is not intended to be authoritative, or definitive, and should only be used as a guideline. 

    Before eating any candy on the list, please be sure to read labels, check manufacturer’s information, and gauge your purchases according to your own sensitivity levels, or those of your loved ones. Check manufacturer websites for official information on any specific products.

    Where did you get your info on Haribo?  I found this on their website.

    Are there any gluten-free HARIBO products?

    Unfortunately, because we use ingredients containing wheat in some HARIBO products, we cannot rule out entirely the possibility that our products or the ingredients used to produce them have come into contact with products containing gluten. Our products may therefore contain traces of gluten. Please always consult the ingredients list on the product packaging. Allergens that are subject to allergen labelling guidelines appear in bold in the ingredients list.

    You mention Kinder Surprise Eggs are gluten free. However,  they contain wheat flour.

    You mentioned Reese’s eggs, but the company does not label these gluten free. As I understand, they have  gluten ingredients, but processed on the same lines as other gluten containing candy which makes them unsafe for Celiacs. Maybe I am working off of old information?

    I think you meant to say, "As I understand, the don't have gluten ingredients," but you left out "don't".

    Depending on individual sensitivity, they may or may not be safe. Often those disclaimers are just the company trying to cover their backsides and save the expense of either testing for gluten content or producing the product in question on dedicated equipment.

    x_x All these and it seems no one but Brach's makes the candy shelled marshmallow duck/hunt eggs. They've always been my favorite and I just can't find another brand that makes them, let alone a gluten free one. I hate how Brach's takes over the market at Easter too. Most stores here carry nothing but Brach's brand for it's types of candies. Like I really love circus peanuts, but finding the Spangler ones is next to impossible here. I basically have to pick them up as an after thought at a fabric store because everywhere else, it's just Brach's all the way.

    Per the Ferrero website, Kinder Surprise eggs are gluten free, and do not list wheat or any other gluten containing ingredients. (https://www.ferrero.co.uk/Kinder-Surprise)  But, they are not available in the U.S.! The Kinder JOY eggs, which are available stateside and have those little wafer balls in them, do contain wheat. According to the website the small kinder bars are also gluten free. As always everyone should do and eat what they feel comfortable with.

    Celiac.com 03/25/2016 - There seems to be some confusion about the gluten-free status of Cadbury Creme Eggs. Are Cadbury Creme Eggs gluten-free? The short answer is "not officially," but the full answer is more detailed.
    In the U.S., Cadbury, and Cadbury Easter products are made by Hershey, which does not consider them to be gluten-free. However, Cadbury Creme Eggs contain no gluten ingredients, and their label states that they are manufactured in a plant that also processes tree nuts and peanuts, but not wheat.
    Any Cadbury product processed in a plant that processes wheat products will be clearly labeled. So, this is a case of read the label, and make your own judgement based on your own experience or sensitivity levels.
    The same is true in the UK, where possible...

    Celiac.com 01/22/2019 - We see a lot of questions about the gluten-free status of certain foods, candies, or snacks. One of the most common product questions we see is: Are Snickers candy bars gluten-free and safe for people with celiac disease? The short answer is yes! Currently, all flavors of Snickers, Snickers Dark bars, Snickers fun size and Snickers mini's are gluten-free, according to website for parent company Mars. The longer answer is that it's always wise to check, as product formulation can change, sometimes suddenly.

    Manufacturers are required to list any allergens on the product label. Mars lists allergen information for each product they produce. For any given Mars product, you can learn more by going t...
