Candy eggs are a link back to the actual origin of Easter, which was an ancient pagan religion. A woman named Ishtar was worshipped as a goddess and that's where the word Easter and the bunnies and eggs came from. She told people that she descended from heaven in an egg, and her son (who was worshipped as a god) liked rabbits. Also it was a fertility cult (worshipping sex) so the bunnies and eggs were also fertility symbols, since eggs are a result of Chickens and Roosters mating, and bunnies are known to mate a LOT. There are those who try to give these things a Christian meaning, but they have nothing to do with the resurrection of Christ. The Roman Catholic church blended some pagan beliefs and traditions into their religion around 300 AD, and for a long time Protestants did not participate in these things, but then they were gradually accepted by many Protestants, and of course today a lot of people who don't even consider themselves Christians celebrate Easter, thinking the eggs and bunnies have some kind of spiritual meaning in Christianity. Other types of candy eaten on Easter have no particular meaning, they just taste good. My own personal answer to the question would be that the candy represents the sweet word of Christ.
