Despite its Christian origins, the Easter weekend has become a secular candy holiday, like Halloween but with less stranger danger and more days off (if you’re one of those lucky workers who gets Monday off on top of the national Friday holiday, please give us a spring break from hearing about it). Probably because it hops around the calendar year after year, Easter’s symbol is a rabbit. A magical treat-hiding rabbit that lays chocolate eggs and has a fondness for pastel colours, making Cadbury Mini Eggs the ultimate expression of the holiday. But you don’t have to go to the chocolate bar aisle of the grocery store to get in the spirit. From mini egg cheesecake to made-in-Nova Scotia chocolate bunnies, here are seven local businesses that can make your Easter sweet. Note: Holiday hours vary and supplies of Easter treats may be limited, so it’s best to check with the business before you go shopping.
Spring is in the air and that means Easter is almost here! The Easter Bunny will be filling baskets and so will we! Hop...
