Thorntons Milk Chocolate Easter Bunny

The guys at Thorntons sent me this Milk Chocolate Bunny to review. I was a bit suprised when I opened the box and thought it'll just like the other kids chocolate Easter eggs and be very sweet and over-powering. But I was suprised at how rounded the flavour and aroma was. This is a very special bunny.

I think Thorntons have done a great job of keeping Easter simple. They name their products simply so you know exactly what you're getting and the packaging is nice and uncomplicated - the chocolate sells itself.

The one thing struck me when I got the egg out of its nice, simple box was the balanced aroma - it wasn't as overpowering as some of the cheaper eggs that you can get from the supermarkets for a Pound or two.

But this is the bit I really loved. When you push the shell in to brake it open, the sound was amazing - it reverberated around the room!

Also the chocolate wasn't too sweet. It was as balanced and understated as the aroma. It was smooth and velvety which is suprising as it was about 50.9% sugar. Now if you've got a quota of sugar to have in any day - I'd use it eating the Thorntons Milk Chocolate Easter Bunny!

Cadbury Creme Egg Easter Egg

The Cadbury Creme Egg Easter Egg is another favourite of kids up and down the country and shouldn't be any different this year to any other. And for £1.25 from Wilkinsons., you can't really argue.

It gets better because they've got a '3 medium Easter eggs' offer with the Cadbury Flake Easter Egg and the Snickers Easter Egg.

See what you think at Wilkinsons.

Cadbury Creme Egg Minis Small Easter Egg

Another price sensation from Wilkinsons comes in the shape of their Cadbury Creme Egg Minis Small Easter Egg which you can get for just £1.29 or two kids Easter eggs for £2!

Cadbury Mini Eggs Small Easter Egg

The Cadbury Mini Eggs Small Easter Egg is certainly for those that either don't want to spend a lot or don't want to send the recipient into a sugar-enduced coma. The egg is just £1.25 (just as the Cadbury Creme Egg Minis Small Easter Egg is).

To be honest, I don't think you can argue in terms of value for money.

Dr Who Easter Egg & Bowl

Another Easter egg from Wilkinsons - possibly aimed at boys. This one is also £3.99 and comes with a breakfast bowl. It is something different as it doesn't come in a cardboard box and wasteful packaging.

Check it out: Wilkinsons - £3.99.
Goes with High School Musical 2 Easter Eggs and Bowl (Both for £7).

You'll get 20 cookies to decorate and a load of colourful bits and bobs to create some wonderfully enticing Easter biscuits. And for a tenner I'm sure you'll get your money's worth of fun and distraction out of them.

Easter Egg Head

Obviously for (big) kids. It's nothing special to be honest, other than a bit of fun I don't think it'll be the best egg your kids of ever tasted - but at least it comes with a pot of chocolate goo for you to try and get out of the carpet!

You can get it from John Lewis.
