Top 8 chocolate eggs for all budgets to impress with this Easter

Price points covered, new eggs discovered

Leftover eggs make great hot chocolate

Rows and rows of Easter eggs tempt us with three-for-two bargains and reminders of our favourite bars. How can we resist Toblerone, Maltesers, and Cadbury’s chocolate fingers? But our job here is to find something different, something to excite, to feel luxurious and special once a year. And promote local if it’s merited. There was no shortage of choice. 

The quality of chocolate is good, though some fall down with far too much sugar (especially dairy-free), so these didn’t make our Top 8.  Most have a decent shelf life so you can enjoy your egg in 'treat' sizes long after Easter Sunday - if you don't polish it off on the day.  Try allowing a small piece to melt in your mouth, closing your eyes for the fullest experience.
