When the Easter bank holiday arrives, we Brits have more than earned the long weekend.
For 2025, Easter will be taking place on Sunday, April 20 with Friday and Monday on either side given as holidays outside of our typical allowance.
After a long, cold winter, the start of spring commences with four days of work-free celebrations – and we think that deserves more than a slap on the back. It deserves chocolate - and lots of it.
Around this time of year, chocolatiers start releasing this year’s cache of Easter eggs, getting creative with their sumptuous designs for all ages, dietary requirements and price points. But it’s the luxury tier that intrigues us most.
From renowned hotels to the finest labels on the sweet treat market, there are intricate and indulgent chocolate eggs to know with the likes of Venchi, Charbonnel et Walker leading the pack.
From the refined packaging to the luxuriously smooth chocolate, the entire Easter egg experience is elevated to new heights. Some are packed with truffles whilst others are intricately handpainted for a design that looks more like an objet d’art than a sweet treat - either way, each will make any lucky recipient eggstatic.
While there will always be a place in our hearts for traditional Dairy Milk, if you’re looking to elevate the Easter proceedings this year. We have you covered with the more luxurious chocolate eggs that money can buy.

Hotel Chocolat Extra-Thick Easter Egg – Unbelievably Vegan

This ultra-indulgent egg is made from Hotel Chocolat’s creamy 45 per cent Nutmilk chocolate, which is a rich, smooth alternative to traditional milk chocolate, crafted with finely milled hazelnuts. It has that perfect, satisfying snap when you break into it and inside, there’s an incredible selection of vegan-friendly truffles, pralines, and caramels. I particularly love the smooth Gianduja and zingy raspberry truffles.
What makes this even more special is the thought that’s gone into the packaging. The eggshell is made from paper pulp, inspired by the shape of a cacao pod, and it’s completely plastic-free, biodegradable, and recyclable. The attention to detail, the quality of the chocolate, and the sustainable packaging make this a must-have for Easter.
