It's that time of year again with lambs aplenty and chicks a-hatchin'. Yes, spring has well and truly sprung and with it has come a whole hoard of Easter eggs on the supermarket shelves.

From adult eggs (you know, the alcoholic kind) to good ol' Cadbury's, there's quite a variety of chocolate treats on the market this year. Tbh, the choice is a bit overwhelming - especially if you're on a budget.

Luckily for you, we've taken on the challenge of trying some weird and wonderful Easter delights and, boy, have we got news for you.

Truth is, you don't have to be limited to an actual egg this year because there are cookies and shortbread to get your gums around, too. Plus, there are SO many actually tasty vegan treats this year, that the choice might actually convert us.

So without further ado, we present to you, the best Easter chocolate for 2024 - listed from lowest to highest price so you can find a treat no matter your budget. And don't worry, there are, of course, some Cadbury staples in there, too...
