The Buckeye Lady is most likely creating the largest buckeye you’ve ever seen in your life.

That’s because, this Easter, the popular Columbus treat vendor is creating a seasonal Buckeye that tops the scales at one-half of a pound.

The seasonal offering, which is on sale now, contains chocolate ganache and is topped with festive Easter sprinkles in addition to a chocolate drizzle.
