Welcome. Here we try and review as wide a range of Easter eggs as possible - not only from the large multinational companies that fill the supermarkets with cheap chocolate, but also the small, fantastic chocolatiers that you might not have heard of.
All reviews are completely unbiased regardless of whether we were sent the Easter eggs to review, or we've purchased them ourselves. We spend many hundreds of Pounds every year on chocolate to review, so we hope you appreciate our reviews.

These Galaxy Bubbles Eggs are perhaps the most disappointing Easter mini eggs of the year so far. Of course they’re virtually identical to the Caramel Temptations eggs but are filled with a Wispa type, bubbly filling which tastes almost unlike chocolate. I know that’s what galaxy chocolate lovers like, but yuk it’s like eating thick, set, double cream.
If you wanted a sweet, sickly fix...
On a recent trip to Tesco to scout of what Tesco will be stocking for Easter this year I came across these hazelnut mini eggs from Ferrero. At the time I thought twice about it as they were a pretty heft £2.50 a bag or £3.00 for two. Although I didn’t inspect the bags too closely I wouldn’t have bought them if I’d have known at the time that they’ll eventually be available on the...
It was just two short years ago since I reviewed the Kinder Surprise Eggs so I thought it was about time that I took another look at them. Back then they were being sold by Tesco for 58p each and this year you can get a pack of three for £1.68 which works out to be 56p each – well despite household costs going up a great deal since then, at least your Easter confectionery spend should be going...
Even before we’ve taken down the Christmas decorations and even considered going back to work, Tesco have got their shelves stocked full to the rafters with Easter chocolates. They may not have loaded them with traditional Easter eggs just yet, but they have made their more ‘convenient’ snacks available to buy. The idea of stretching Easter out as long as possible may belittle the...
This is another Easter egg from the range of the Cadbury Easter gift boxes I got this year. If you were to buy this egg it’d cost a staggering £3.49 where you’d only get a fairly small egg – about 11cm tall and 87g in weight, plus a tiny egg and a fairly useless Freddo toy. In themselves, they’re perfectly fine for young kids, but not exactly great value for money.
But in that...
I can’t believe its three years since I last reviewed a chocolate pizza. But after visiting the Ramsbottom Chocolate Festival today I came away with an Easter chocolate pizza from The Chocolate Cafe and I just couldn’t wait to get it home to try it out (just like most Friday nights).
The previous one cost £17.50 and had ten inch greater diameter, whilst this one is £11.95 and comes with the...
I don’t have to review these Mini Eggs from Green & Blacks to know I love them. I seem to get them every year and my affection grows with every tasting. But what I’ve not tasted before was the butterscotch mini eggs. I’ve tried their large butterscotch Easter egg before and loved it. But with this gift box you also get the 70% dark chocolate praline mini eggs and their milk...
Picture the scene. You’re in town, you’ve bought everyone else in your family an Easter egg, but you’ve forgotten your wife, or even mother, and at a push, your grandmother. What do you buy them? Well seeing as virtually every highstreet has a Thorntons, I’d recommend this Jubilee Easter egg.
I must have eaten my weight in Easter eggs so far this year and I know a fantastic, great...
You can’t get much more luxurious at this time of year than tucking into a Paul A. Young Sea Salted Caramel. I could end the review there as that’s all you really need to know. But for those of you who’d actually like to know why, then here’s why: it’s made with awesome dark chocolate, presented fantastically and the filling is sublime.
This egg this egg looks different this...
Ok, I admit it, I love Cadbury’s Mini Eggs, but I just don’t like the way my skin feels afterwards – it always a touch itchy. But when I try these mini eggs from Divine which are almost identical to the Cadbury ones then I don’t feel anything like as sugared-up.
One of the biggest differences, visually, is that these ones are more of an irregular shape. But in terms of flavour...
This year I thought I’d try something that I wouldn’t normally chocolate made for Lakeland -the kitchenware company. Whilst looking at them in the box I’m not entirely sure it was such a good idea. Of course you get eight half shells of Easter chocolate which measure about 5cm tall. Two are white chocolate decorated with milk chocolate stripes, two are milk chocolate eggs with white...
