Finding the Easter Bunny and Easter Goodies in Japan can be quite the challenge with limited quantities which sell out quickly. Easter is Sunday, April 21st so hop to it! We completed a store check yesterday (April 10th) and found Easter goodies including chocolate bunnies, eggs, and jelly beans available at the stores listed below. Some of the stores also have Easter baskets and party decorations as well. There is still a few weeks left, so it is also possible to have the relatives overseas send the goodies stash or order from overseas retailers. Hope this list is helpful in completing your mission as the Easter bunny. If you are looking for Easter fun in Tokyo, join our the Girl Scouts Fundraiser (Minato-ku) – Kids & Baby Lightly Loved Sale on Sat and Sun, April 13 & 14th (10:00-3:00). You can get photos with the Easter Bunny for 1,000 yen per family shot.
The Easter Bunny and Easter Goodies in Japan
1. Nissin World Delicatessen (Higashi Azabu, Minato-ku) – If you are looking for sweets, plastic eggs and baskets Nissan has a great selection right now. Only rivaled by National Azabu off-line. They have chocolate bunnies and jelly beans. However, they do not have plush dolls and small gift items. Nissin is very close to Azabu Juban station and has free parking on the 1st floor.
2. National Azabu Supermarket (Minami Azabu, Minat0-ku) – Definitely the widest selection of Easter themed sweets, gifts and party goods in a Tokyo store. The candy is located on the 1st floor and gift and party items on the second floor.

3. Flying Tiger (various locations in Japan) has an excellent selection of Easter gifts and decorations. They have stuffed doll rabbits and bunnies, Easter party napkins
and plates, and Easter crafts all between 200 – 1,200 yen. I did find Easter baskets, however, they have a great selection of bins and baskets that can be made into Easter baskets with creative imagination. There are 16 Flying Tiger Copenhagen locations in the Tokyo and Yokohama, including
Aoyama, Shibuya, Futakotamagawa, Shinjuku and Ikebukuro.

import product grocery stores in Japan. They have great coffee but also do an excellent stocking seasonal foods and basics (cereal, granolas, etc.). They have a cute selection of chocolate and gummies for Easter this year, many of Disney and Sanrio characters, so check out your local Kaldi.

6. Kinokuniya (Aoyama, Minato-ku) the fancy international supermarket has a limited selection of Easter Candy near the cash register. However, they are one of the few retailers who presently has chocolate bunnies. This was my 3-year-olds favourite find on the store check.
