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, the choice might actually convert us?
So without further ado, we present to you, the best Easter chocolate for 2022 - 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...

Heston from Waitrose The Chocolate Scotch Egg
We have no words, other than 'only Heston could come up with the concept of a Scotch Easter egg'. One review states, "It's mad, it is Heston and it works, once again! Yes, it is a bit over-sweet but it's so fun and rich and naughty. Recommend cutting the whole egg in half first, then experiment eating it! Great combination of flavours from the mango, yuzu and chocolate. So fun to take your first bite, then be confused for few seconds, then delighted!"

Happi Salted Caramel Oat Milk Chocolate Egg
Tasted by heat contributor, Lucy Smith @luceeeeesmith've had bad experiences with vegan chocolate in the past (chocolate should not crumble, just sayin') but I like oat milk in my coffee so thought I'd give this one a try. Boy oh boy, I'm glad I did because, for a vegan egg, this thing tastes positively creamy. The salted caramel takes away from the slightly darker milk chocolate and my boyfriend and I were practically fighting for the last pieces. Would recommend to vegans and non-vegans, tbh.

Eggs and Soldiers | Easter Truffles
Ok so... this is weird but in the best way possible. With "creamy white chocolate ganache eggs" and "hazelnut praline and milk chocolate" soldiers, you can defo justify eating chocolate for breakfast with this. One review states, "Highly addictive! Beautifully presented and a talking point of the day."

Cadbury Dairy Milk Ultimate Daim Easter Egg
Tasted by heat contributor, Red Edwards @red.edwards don't know about you lot, but when I think of Easter, Cadbury instantly springs to mind. My Easter egg pile always consists of Cadbury Eggs so, when I saw the new Daim bar egg, I was literally drooling. It's incredible and so, so tasty.
