Best Easter Eggs
NOMO is a god among vegan chocolate. This Creamy Choc Easter egg offers something different to the usual bitter dark chocolate that is often the only option for those who can't eat dairy, and it comes with a chocolate bar, too.
It's hard to believe this Easter egg only costs a couple of quid, because this elegant-looking egg could definitely stand its own against the more luxurious buys. Its two halves are completely different - one a single origin Ghanaian Milk Chocolate and the other a Belgian White & Feuilletine. The best of both worlds. The design also means it's already portioned out to share (if you're feeling generous).
This is for those people who ~really~ like dark chocolate. The egg itself is made from 70% dark chocolate and inside you'll find it's filled with high-cacao pralines and caramels, as well as simple truffles (all dark chocolate, of course). It also comes in a sleek, white box so it's the perfect option if you are looking for a gift.
Tony's Chocolonely has quickly become a firm favourite to many chocolate eaters in the UK, and it's easy to see why. Made from 100% fair trade chocolate, Tony's Chocolonely clearly cares about how its eggs are. And it's not scared to have fun with flavours either. Inside this box you'll find, Belgian Fairtrade dark, dark milk and milk chocolate easter eggs with almond, hazelnut, pretzel pieces, caramel, nougat and sea salt.
These three chocolatey creatures are just so sweet. For £10 you get three 40g chocolate animals - one caramel, one white chocolate and one a classic milk chocolate. Rabbert, Elizapeck and Woolliam's moulds were all hand-carved by Hotel Chocolat's choccy artists.
Handcrafted in Notting Hill, this vegan Easter egg tastes like wild strawberries dipped in rich dark chocolate. The taste isn't synthetic either as the 70% chocolate is combined with real strawberries to get the taste spot on. That's not all. It's filled with strawberry and dark chocolate mini eggs, too. A pricier option but definitely worth it considering the care put in.
If you're planning an Easter egg hunt, these are the chocolate you need. A hard pastel colour candy shell hides a soft cookies-and-cream centre. And for Harrods chocolate, less than a tenner is a pretty good price.
This milk chocolate egg has been leveled with a covering of cocoa nibs and roasted almonds. Made using fairtrade-sourced cocoa, this Easter egg may be a little more grown up than your usual choice, but it's only a couple of quid more. A luxurious option doesn't always have to be pricey.
