Good & Plenty colored box candy, old fashioned and found by theatre candy boxes at grocers.

I don't care for the refrigerated roll cookies. Think I will make them with the boxed or pkg. of Pillsbury sugar cookie mix. These are cute. Could make duckies too. The licorice for hair is in a box of mixed colors. The name leaves me. L ook in the candy bar aisle of the grocery store. I see kids eating them in movie theaters also. So... they must be out there somewhere.

Could not find yellow licorice anywhere. Any hints to where you find this product.

Super easy. I used mini chips for the eyes and they are a little small for the cookie, but it saved time. I could not find the candy for the feathers so I used icing for that and some are with out, which are still cute. My 2.5 year old enjoyed putting the decorations on also. Great for Easter!!
