Egg Hunt

A rebirth in the taste of chocolate...

However you like your Easter eggs, fresheye makes the hunt a lot easier for you. With our own discerning summary of 5, here is our version of the best chocolate taste test. And of course let us not forget what the Easter period is all about and what it means. Easter, also called Pascha or Resurrection Sunday, is a Christian festival and holiday commemorating the resurrection of Jesus from the dead, described in the New Testament as having occurred on the third day after his burial following his crucifixion by the Romans at Calvary c. 30 AD.

1. Waitrose No.1 hidden truffles egg

A thin egg but it has a rich and creamy texture and a pleasant taste, studded with rubbly almonds and a touch of salt. Quite a low-key creation, but the chocolate isn’t sickly sweet and has a good mouthfeel.

2. Rococo eggs

Proving that Easter eggs aren’t just for children (you’d better find an extra good hiding place for this one), Rococo creates its own, grownup iteration from velvety smooth chocolate that comes in a range of delectable flavours - from sea salt to raspberry or honeycomb (there’s a wholly vegan version, too).

3. Hotel Chocolat

Whether you’re looking for a fun twist on an Easter classic, Eggs & Soldiers truffles or want to crack into their ridiculously thick Easter Eggs, look at Hotel Chocolat.

4. Divine

A boldly citrus flavour sings out from the softly set chocolate shell (don’t expect a clean snap). No bells and whistles, just a nice basic egg that delivers on all its promises. Simple but successful.

5. Melt chocolate egg

Indulge this Easter with handcrafted, luxury Acorn Easter Egg from Melt Chocolatesnow with completely plastic free packaging. Exquisite milk and dark chocolate Easter egg with a nutty capule almond rocher.
