But if you’re going to find yourself with a whole bunch of kids, nothing beats the Asda Bumper Egg Hunt Box.

Julie Ashfield, Managing Director of Buying, at Aldi UK commented: “Our 2020 Easter egg collection has been crafted with delicious twists and delectable flavours to give our customers, both young and old, something amazing to feast on this Easter”. This egg was easily one of the best eggs hands down, with a special shoutout for the dark chocolate and sour cherry layer.While the egg hits all the notes of Terry’s trademark chocolate orange flavour, it’s a little on the thinner side, meaning it doesn’t offer quite the same strength of flavour as you may be used to in the chocolate orange segments. It’s made up of a large chocolate shell, hand painted to look like a huge hen’s egg, that’s filled with smaller sea salt caramel chocolate eggs. This large, hollow quirky milk and white chocolate character is aimed at kids, but the flaky coating is likely to cause a mess.

While Reeses eggs are fine (as are regular peanut butter cups and pieces) but the hollow easter eggs carry a may contain. The chocolate itself is quite thin and has a good snap to it, and the dusting of gold lustre on the outside of the egg is a nice touch. Who doesn't love mini eggs? Those and many other Cadbury easter eggs are gluten free, if you miss Cadbury caramel bars you may be delighted to know that caramel eggs are gluten free unlike the bars. If you have a dark chocolate lover in your life, this is bound to go down well with them. The dark chocolate shell is crisp and not too bitter, and is laced with pieces of honeycomb throughout. The egg is made from Cadbury’s classic Dairy Milk chocolate, meaning it avoids the cheap advent calendar-style taste of some eggs at the lower end of the price scale.

Available in most big supermarkets, this Belgian chocolate egg comes with a box of seashell truffles. According to a survey by consumer research group GWP, 65 per cent of people think of chocolate first when asked about Easter, rather than its religious origins. As usual M&S totally out strip everywhere else with their gluten free easter eggs, most are gluten free but odd ones aren't safe - a couple contain "wheat fibre" too this year, I have missed them off the list though they do make a statement on the box about it being gluten free but use your own judgement on that one. Blind taste tested and judged by foodie experts, Aldi’s hand decorated egg with truffles, topped the table in the white chocolate category. The outer layer is milk chocolate studded with masses of chopped hazelnuts, the middle layer is a dark chocolate egg adorned with sour cherries and the innermost layer is a white chocolate egg covered in pistachios and dried raspberry pieces.
