Purim Basket Items

Purim is just around the corner and I always like to try and find interesting unusual items to fill my baskets. One year I found Burger King onion rings, then there were the Uts crab flavored chips. Are there any items that now have kosher certification - I'm thinking of things like Lindt chocolates this year or Tootsie pops last year.

    Is this the first year Ferrero-Rocher chocolates have hashgacha? If so, that would fit the bill. Also, I'm not sure about whether the following is newly certified, but I know I just bought Dilettante chocolate-covered dried fruits (Fruit Medley is a mix of blueberries, apricots, strawberries, and cherries, and there are also just Bing Cherries available) with the Kof-K. I got them at a Wal-Mart in bags, but then saw them last night at Trader Joe's in a plastic tub. Is it possible I've missed the hechsher before now?

      What about Junior Mints or Dots? I'm still waiting to find Sugar Babies with a hashgacha.

        Must have for this year (although it's pricey)

        Bertie Botts Every Flavor Beans, made by Jelly Belly.
