"We're proud to partner with the White House on the 2025 Easter Egg Roll and provide guests with a curated selection of classic American treats made by chocolate and candy companies. Chocolate and candy enhance special moments like Easter, and we are pleased to share these fun and unique confectionery products in support of this timeless tradition."

ADDITIONAL BACKGROUND INFORMATION:

Chocolate and candy sweeten our memories and bring us closer to each other. To help consumers choose the right treat for special occasions like Easter, chocolate and candy companies are offering more variety in pack sizes and portion options than ever before – all while reminding consumers that candy is a treat and not a center-of-the-plate food.

American consumers have a unique mindset when they enjoy chocolate and candy that is not present when interacting with other foods. People in the U.S. enjoy chocolate and candy 2-3 times per week, averaging just 40 calories and one teaspoon of added sugar per day, which includes special moments like Easter.
