Allergy-Friendly Easter and Passover
Easter and Passover holidays mean kids are busy hunting eggs and Afikoman (matzo), but families with food allergies are on a different kind of search. From finding allergy-safe chocolate bunnies to scoring the perfect eggless dessert for Sunday brunch or Seder, there is a lot to gather and get creative with. Luckily, Spokin has the resources to make the hunt easier.
For Easter, we've created candy guides for both the classics and top 8 allergen-free, a how-to on eggless egg decorating, and curated allergen-friendly recipes for Easter brunch, lunch or dinner. For Passover, we have allergen-free alternatives for your Seder plate and recipes that accommodate both observing the holiday and food allergies. Consider this your golden (allergy-friendly) egg to a safe Easter and Passover.
