That was cute. Learned more than I thought I would about Hinamatsuri/Doll festival

Made pretty good use of the fact that all the Riders are pretty silly in their own way

Pretty sure he's eating konpeito. Not sure why that'd make an Ararun Gochizo. Is Konpeito a brand name or something?

Konpeito is taken from the Portuguese confeito, so no, it's not a brand name. However, the traditional food is hina-arare, a kind of colorful rice cracker. Konpeito is a sweeter stand-in.

Just looking at it again, it sure does look like konpeito. Did they make this art asset for one of the past Rider animes and are reusing it as arere here, because that's sure how it looks to me

No, he is eating konpeito. Arare is the traditional food but konpeito is sometimes used instead because it's sweet, but you can call it arare in the context of Hina Matsuri.
