Moo Free Chocolates now offer their dairy and soya free Easter egg in three flavours – original, honeycomb and orange. If you haven’t tried Moo Free before it’s an excellent replacement for milk chocolate and the mini moo bars are great for little ones. Plamil are also doing a dairy and soya free egg this year as part of their dairy free Easter range and Hotel Chocolat have one dairy and soya free egg! I love the Eggstras, a whole bag full of the fruit flavoured sweet foam gums that are little fried eggs, which are originally from Starmix. When you think of Easter you may think Easter Eggs but fried eggs may not be on your mind, these are a quirky addition to the Easter Fun from HARIBO. The Jelly Bunnies are fruit flavour and sweet foam gums that are shaped as bunnies, either a bunny head or a complete bunny. We love these, they look really cute and taste great too. Have a go at our Favourite Biscuits (dairy, soya and egg free; could use a gluten free flour), make them Easter Egg shaped and decorate them with different coloured icings!

If you’re dairy free and you haven’t tried these truffles yet you really are missing out. Claire Caley, seasonal brand manager at HariboUK, said: “Sweets play a crucial role at Easter, not just offering an alternative to traditional chocolate but providing the variety and formats that are fit for purpose – whether that’s treats for gifting, sharing or Easter hunting.” Jelly Bunnies brings together bunny shaped pieces with the popular texture found in Jelly babies within a 160g bag.
