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.

The chocolate itself is very smooth, but once that has dissolved in your mouth you’re left with very tiny flakes of cocoa nib. Not too much, not too little, just enough to set this Easter treat apart from the rest. This Easter, the brand has transformed its popular Maldon salt chocolate bar into a delectable handmade dark chocolate Easter egg. What: Irish luxury chocolatiers Butlers are a safe option this Easter - not only are they one of the few remaining family-owned chocolatiers around, but they have a great rep for sustainable sourcing and delicious chocolate. There are lots of different eggs on offer but we’d keep it classic with this smooth milk chocolate number.Moo Free is the perfect vegan chocolate brand for kids. Its adorable characters and bite-size vegan bars make it easy for parents to give their children a chocolate treat without dairy.

I adore honeycomb, so couldn’t wait to try Butterm!lk’s vegan milk chocolate egg with crunchy honeycomb flakes. It even comes with a generously-sized Honeycomb Blast bar that is super chunky – far bigger than a certain non-vegan chocolate bar! What: Percy Pig and Colin the Caterpiller - two iconic treats that are getting an Easter makeover from M&S this year. Treat the chocolate lover in your life to a giant Percy Pig or Colin face - the latter is white chocolate, and Percy is milk chocolate so they cover all bases. This egg is genuinely stunning, the unique out casing is hand-painted in India, and each flavour has its own distinct floral design. Inside, the egg is lined with fabric and filled with Booja Booja’s legendary organic vegan truffles. The chocolate itself is made using the brand’s stunning Nutmilk chocolate which uses finely milled hazelnuts instead of milk to give it a silky smooth texture. I think they’d work particularly well as an alternative Easter egg hunt, as the little boxes are the perfect size for hiding in small places.What: Chocolate orange fans, this one's for you - Selfridges’ egg mixes single origin dark chocolate with zesty orange chocolate, and it looks pretty smart too. There are two other delicious flavours available too - a praline and a tasty malted blonde version.
