Easter Treats Made with Love (and PackFreshUSA Pouches!)
Easter is such a special time to show love through sweet surprises—and nothing beats crafting fun, festive Easter treats for all your favorite people, big and small! Even though my kids are grown, I still put together thoughtful Easter treats for them. Of course, they're a bit more age-appropriate now… but with new little ones joining the family this year, I’m already getting excited to plan extra-special goodies for next Easter.
Over the years, I’ve created several videos highlighting some of my favorite Easter and Springtime treats. These are not only crowd-pleasers but also super cute when packed in 5-mil Stand-Up Pouches which come in a variety of sizes and colors that perfectly complement your Easter baskets or standalone gifts.
Here are some of my most loved (and most asked about!) Easter treat ideas:
1. Freeze-Dried Jolly Ranchers = Easter Egg Magic
These colorful candies puff up like pastel Easter eggs when freeze-dried! Bright, fun, and full of flavor—they look stunning in clear or iridescent PackFreshUSA pouches.

2. Freeze-Dried Yogurt in Easter Shapes
Cute and creamy! These are perfect for the littlest snackers in the family. I shaped mine into fun Easter designs for that extra festive flair.

3. Spring Treat Compilation (Bunnies, Strawberries & More!)
This video features everything from adding different treats into your bags like freeze-dried Peeps, fun colorful freeze-dried candies shaped like Easter Eggs, added chocolate, it is a basket in a bag. You can add shaped like bunnies to strawberry treats—all tucked into extra-large 5- mil Stand-up Pouches, transformed into adorable Easter goodie bags.

4. Dehydrated (or Freeze-Dried!) Marshmallows & Peeps
No freeze-dryer? No problem! Dehydrated marshmallows and Peeps are an easy and super fun treat option. Plus, they look great in mini pouches.

5. Freeze-Dried Jello – Custom Shapes for the Win
One of my latest obsessions! I did them in car shapes, but imagine how cute Easter-themed versions would be. The colors and texture are next level.

6. Chocolate-Dipped Freeze-Dried Fruits
Elegant and delicious—these are always a hit in Easter baskets. Try dipping strawberries or apples for a gourmet twist.

7. Egg-Shaped Rice Krispies (Dehydrated or Freeze-Dried)
Another easy and festive option! Classic Rice Krispies shaped into eggs are always a hit—and you can even try freeze-drying them for a unique twist.
Whether you're making treats for toddlers, teens, or adults, Stand-up Pouches are the perfect way to present them in style. From pastel pops of color to crystal-clear views of your homemade goodies, they’ll make your Easter baskets truly egg-stra special.
Happy Easter Treat Making!
