Mixed Cadbury Creme Eggs
Buy the Cadbury mixed Creme Eggs: SQUIRREL_TEXT_50027069
Planning an Easter hunt? This five-egg bundle from Cadbury has you covered with a crowd-pleasing assortment.
It includes two original Creme Eggs, two Caramel Eggs and one white chocolate version to keep things interesting.
Why we chose it:
You might think the Cadbury's caramel Creme Egg is just going to be an overly sweet mess. But you're wrong. It's really, really nice. We buy the mixed pack as my youngest son loves white chocolate, my eldest will be pleased when he's presented with a classic, and me and my husband love the caramel ones. We haven't yet told the kids how nice the caramel ones are, so we get to have them ourselves.
Tony's Chocolonely Easter Egg
Buy the Tony's Chocolonely Easter egg: SQUIRREL_TEXT_50026880
Tony's Chocolonely has created its own large Easter egg, and it comes with a selection of solid eggs in five flavours (milk chocolate, milk chocolate caramel sea salt, dark milk chocolate pretzel toffee, white chocolate raspberry popping candy and dark chocolate almond sea salt).
Why we chose it:
Even though Tony's Chocolonely is on the pricier side, the quality is superb. Not only do you get a massive chocolate egg, but you get their mini flavoured eggs as well. It's such a fun, colourful and delicious treat for Easter.
Crispy Caramel Liquorice Eggs, Lakrids by Bülow
Buy the Crispy Caramel Liquorice Eggs, Lakrids by Bülow: Available from Abel and Cole (£16.95)
These mini eggs from Lakrids by Bülow have a sweet liquorice core, are coated in a chocolate layer with a crispy caramel coating. They are both gluten and gelatine-free and made from natural ingredients.
Why we chose it:
I love liquorice and my husband is a massive fan. I've bought him some of this brand's liquorice goodies before as a treat as part of our Abel and Cole order and they were dangerously good. So I thought I'd surprise him with the crispy caramel eggs this Easter. Plus, as some people really hate liquorice, it means there are less people to have to share them round.
M&S Pretzel Party
Buy the M&S Pretzel Party: Available from Ocado (£6.50)
If you are looking for something a little different to the usual hollow shells, the M&S Pretzel Party slab combines milk chocolate and white chocolate with crunchy salted pretzels, topped with speckled mini eggs and candy-coated chocolate nibs.
Why we chose it:
I think M&S has Easter nailed with this hot mess of a chocolate treat. What it lacks in sophistication, it makes up for in pure joy; I can't wait to try it.

Why we chose it:
Montezuma's is a British chocolate company that doesn't use palm oil and makes all sorts of delicious creations. I'm going to be hunting down their dark chocolate peanut butter mini eggs this Easter because dark chocolate and peanut butter, do I need to say anything else?
Hotel Chocolat Toast & Marmalade Easter Sandwich

Buy the Hotel Chocolat caramayo Easter sandwich: SQUIRREL_TEXT_50027072, Hotel Chocolat (£11.95)
Hotel Chocolat took a literal approach to these 'chocolate sandwiches' by 3D-scanning real slices of bread to create the moulds.
The result? A playful spring treat featuring milk chocolate slices dotted with crunchy feuilletine wafers and Guérande sea salt, each topped with a half-caramel chocolate egg.
Why we chose it:
We are a big fan of the Hotel Chocolat easter egg sandwiches in my house. My youngest daughter discovered them a few years ago and runs an annual campaign to remind me to get her one (which include the claim that she should get an egg too, because clearly a sandwich is a main course, not a pudding...). On that rationale, my favourite - the toast and marmalade one - must be an acceptable breakfast. Just don't run that one by our resident nutritionist...
