2011 Updated: It looks like Asda are remaining in the “Pile them high, sell them cheap” camp and it looks like they’re trying to pull a fast one too. Some of their mid/large eggs were allegedly being sold for £6.15 and are now down to £2 – come on! These include the Cadbury Flake egg, the Cadbury Twirl and Cadbury Wispa. Whilst they’re shifting the Nestle medium eggs for £2 each or 3 for £4 which is just stupid pricing. The thing is, they taste dire, some of them taste like cardboard to me and are just rammed full of sugar, if you really cared about your kids I’d buy something different.
I popped down to Asda to see what sort of Easter Eggs they had and they’d certainly added a much wider range over the last couple of weeks since I last visited them.
I chose to review all the cheap Easter eggs they had and also some more expensive ones.
For just £22 I managed to buy:
Nestle Kit Kat Crunchie Easter Egg (235g)
Nestle Smarties Easter Egg (211g)
Nestle Rolo Easter Egg (239g)
Nestle Aero Easter Egg (197g)
Green & Blacks Chocolate Egg with Smooth Praline Mini Eggs (180g)
Thorntons Premium Collection with truffle, pralines and mousses (275g)
Thorntons Classic Collection (175g) with 6 chocolates with classic centres.

When I got them home I realised that there weren’t any Cadbury Easter eggs on sale – only their mass-market competitor Nestle and some more upmarket manufacturers such as Thorntons etc. I realised that it was the Easter eggs I posted about from Wilkinsons that had some Cadbury ones. Have Asda done a deal with Nestle so they get their eggs cheaper on condition they don’t sell any cheap Cadbury ones?
