No.1 Gloriously Nutty Egg

Rsp: £9/200g

It doesn’t look too dissimilar to a Ferrero Rocher but, instead of hazelnuts, this single-origin chocolate egg is rolled in crunchy roasted almonds and cocoa nibs

Eggstraordinary Chocolate Hen’s Eggs

Rsp: £6/150g

These hen eggs are so realistic you could almost boil them, but they’re made of white chocolate and filled with fresh banana purée and dark chocolate caramel ganache, so we suggest you don’t.

Spring Lemon

Rsp: £3/45g

Not satisfied with just one chocolate fruit, the incredibly popular avocado will be joined by a spring lemon in the Waitrose Easter fruit bowl this year. The retailer says this citrusy treat is “almost indistinguishable from the real thing”. It’s made with white chocolate swirled with, you guessed it, zesty lemon.
