1. Abel and Cole’s XXL marbled chocolate egg

XXL is how you’ll be feeling if you eat this all in one go. 1.25kg of unadulterated chocolate. Go big or go home we say.

A chocolate egg filled with chocolate eggs filled with peanut butter. Now you’re talking.

3. Hotel Chocolat’s classic giant ostrich Easter egg

If there’s one thing Hotel Chocolat do better than chocolate, it’s decadence. This GIANT ostrich egg is packed with crunchy cookie pieces, puffed rice, and crispy feuilletine, filled with six golden eggs and served with a tray of 27 pralines, caramels, truffles…you get the idea.

Milk chocolate +prosecco + popping candy = what’s not to love?
