What: Can’t choose between milk chocolate and dark chocolate? Choose both with Chococo’s giant half and half treat, which weighs in at a solid half kilo of handcrafted chocolate heaven, including handmade chocolates inside.

The shell is made of milk chocolate that has been filled with crunchy cookie pieces and puffed rice, while the egg also comes with a tray of 20 chocs, meaning the whole thing amounts to over 1kg of chocolate. Just the right amount for one we think. What: Another beloved Swiss chocolatier, Laderach is best known for slabs of nuttyFrischSchoggi, which is also available in bunny shapes this Easter. If you're keeping things a bit more classic, go for this handsome Easter Bunny in Laderach's delicious milk chocolate (but also available in lots of other flavours and combos). The creamy chocolate egg is generously studded with pieces of honeycomb throughout, and the chocolate itself is very sweet. I loved the hint of sea salt which added extra pops of sweetness throughout and made it even more moreish.Got an insatiable sweet tooth?

If you’d like your Easter egg to come with a clear conscience, Divine is always a good choice as the brand is famously co-owned by the cocao farmers it works with. So the farmers get a share of the profits they help to create, and you get a great tasting egg. Okay so I caved… I’ve done an easter chocolate orange cheesecake. Why? BECAUSE I LOVE IT SO MUCH. But yes, it is basically my chocolate orange cheesecake just with the easter mini eggs on top! It is amazing.At 260g, it’s a decent sized egg for the price, particularly as it comes with 100g of mini dark chocolate eggs too. The chocolate has a deeply satisfying snap when you break a piece off, and the taste is on the rich, earthy side of the flavour spectrum, with woody tobacco notes. It’s just bitter enough to know that it’s a good quality dark chocolate, but doesn’t dry out your mouth too much. These are all individually wrapped in foil and have a slightly different flavour to the chocolate in the egg. The chocolate is slightly darker in colour, and the flavour is a little more fruity, with hints of dark cherry, which gives a really nice contrast to the egg itself. For the flavouring of my Easter chocolate orange cheesecake filling I used two terry’s milk chocolate orange’s because they are classic and my favourite, but the dark or white if you can find them work just as well. You can use Cadbury chocolate orange buttons, or milk chocolate with orange extract for example! In the past, vegan white chocolate has always slightly missed the mark in terms of flavour and can often be too sweet. However, I was pleasantly surprised with MooFree’s lemon white chocolate – the subtle taste of lemon balances the sweetness perfectly without being too tart for younger mouths.

These truffles really are pure indulgence, the bitter cocoa powder coats a gooey ganache centre that is studded with chewy pieces of caramel which melt in your mouth. All of these rich flavours may sound like a sugar overload, but the bitter cocoa and salt in the caramel balances the flavours perfectly. It’s simple but so flavoursome and just the right amount of sweet and salty with plenty of texture to keep it interesting. No matter how old we get, there’s something about the joy of a chocolate Easter egg that fills us with glee. Whether it’s unwrapping the foil coating or discovering the hidden treats inside, our love for Easter eggs is as strong as when we were five years old. As all the contents are made from either recycled board or home compostable film, this is certainly one treat you can give to the kids with a clear conscience.I then mix in melted butter – you can use baking spread, but sometimes this makes it greasy. If you find your biscuit bases are a little hard, you can reduce the butter to about 100g. Also, if you want to use a chocolate covered biscuit, filled biscuit, light biscuit, or buttery biscuit like shortbread you need to use 100g of butter as well as they require less. What: Venchi is the last word in luxury Italian chocolate, so who better to turn to when you want the best of the best? This incredible white chocolate egg is hiding a little surprise inside - a layer of Piedmontese hazelnuts, pistachios and lightly salted almonds. What: A dark chocolate lover's dream, this seriously decadent egg is made from 70% cocoa, and comes filled with high-cacao pralines, caramels, simple truffles and plenty of other chocolatey treats.
