Easter just got a lot wilder than we anticipated. Russell Stover, everyone’s favorite drugstore chocolate brand, just released this extra AF Easter candy that we need to try NOW. It’s called the Cinnamon Sugar Churro Egg, and our Easter baskets are ready and willing to accept such a beautiful creation.
As stated on their package, these new candies are “cinnamon sugar churro flavored marshmallow with real cinnamon in candy coating.” Yeah, that definitely sounds like something we can get behind.
Several bloggers and snack addicts have spotted the new Russel Stover Churro Egg in stores around the country. A contributor to The Impulsive Buy blog found them on February 12th in a Walgreens alongside Russel Stover’s Lemon Pucker Egg — yet another new candy we never knew we needed until this moment.
The Snack Whisperer also found the Cinnamon Sugar Churro Eggs in their local candy aisle. “So good went back for more,” The Snack Whisperer wrote in the caption of a February 15th Instagram, “Cinnamony marshmsllowy churroy goodness. got a good pic before inhaling it this time.”
Oh man. We hope these snackers haven’t bought them all up! We need to get our hands on a Cinnamon Sugar Churro Egg fast.
For those of you who have never eaten a cinnamon sugar churro before — firstly, you’re missing out. They basically taste like fried dough coated with a cinnamon-sugar mix. But the ridged texture adds a nice crunch that regular fried dough just doesn’t have.

“It tastes just like a churro,” Tami Dunn from YouTube says in her review of the product. “They did an excellent job with it. It has a good sugar-cinnamon ratio. They didn’t overdo it on the cinnamon. It’s delicious.”
[fm_youtube url="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P0zKQyFlkWU"]And yes, you heard Tami correctly. Each Cinnamon Sugar Churro Egg is only 110 calories. Okay, keep ’em coming.
As of right now, the Cinnamon Sugar Churro Eggs are not listed on the Russell Stover website, and they are seemingly only available in a select few drugstores (Walgreens and CVS). But, the closer we get to Easter, the more likely we are to see them hit stores near us.
We suppose we’ll just have to stare at the candy aisle until they magically appear. Oh well.
At least we can snack on some jelly beans or whopper eggs while we wait. We can handle that.
Because we all know this is the truth. Sorry, Valentine’s Day. You just can’t compare.
Easter Candy > Valentines Day Candy

There’s just something about the spherical shape that makes the flavor that much better. Don’t you think?
Hallelujah. Amen.
I was furious at the lack of good 50% off candy until I spotted the new variety of Easter jelly beans. My faith is restored.

We like this idea. We like it a lot.
Honestly, we’d be into it. The man knows that Easter candy is superior.
My husband gave me a bag of these on Valentine’s Day and said “pretend these are hearts.” When he went to the store they were out of V Day candy but already had EASTER candy out. Do you think stores promote holidays too early? @KTULNews #Istillatethem #reeses pic.twitter.com/1dV5ba2KNQ

Someone hold our hand. And please, for the love of Jelly Belly, don’t let go.
the Easter candy is now out which means I will need to be supervised at the grocery store bc I can’t control myself when there are 45 different flavors of jelly beans

And yeah — Russell Stover is bringing cinnamon to their chocolate rabbits, too. You see that Cinnamon French Toast bunny? You can pass, but we’ll take two.
There's so many new options in the Easter candy aisle 🐰🐣🙃 I think I'll stick with the classics - like chocolate or the white fudge. I'm passing on some of these new flavors 😆 pic.twitter.com/dbcC1Wi7dF

We’re about to lose our minds over these new candies. Give us Russell Stover for breakfast, lunch, and dinner!
