You'd be forgiven for thinking these were a pack of regular hen's eggs. On closer inspection, these are in fact white chocolate eggs, filled with a soft and sticky banoffee centre, with layers of fresh banana purée ganache and dark chocolate caramel ganache. No need to boil!

Serve your loved ones an Easter egg sandwich this year. This quirky gift box contains 2 slices of creamy milk chocolate pressed between two beautiful white chocolate eggshells, with a sweet caramel 'yolk', presented in a sandwich takeaway box. A fun twist on a classic egg sandwich.

7. Chocolate Orange Loaded Egg, £15.99
– Best indulgent egg
Handmade from Belgian milk chocolate, this half egg is stuffed to the brim with chocolate crispy crunch and Terry's chocolate orange segments. Sealed with more Belgian chocolate, it's then topped off with chocolate bunnies, smarties mini eggs, chocolate orange minis and golden nuggets. It can be personalised too, perfect for a special gift (if you can resist keeping it for yourself!).
Available from: Not On The High Street
8. Moser Roth Belgian Chocolate Mini Eggs, £3.99
– Best for adults
Here at MFM HQ we're quite a fan of mini eggs - they're more manageable and easier when we're trying to keep to smaller portions. We love this smart box of chocolate eggs, which are filled with a variety of gourmet flavours including salted caramel, speculoos and chocolate orange. We are particularly fond of the generous levels of ganache hidden inside!
Available from: Aldi
9. Hotel Chocolat You Crack Me Up Easter Egg, £30

Kids will love replicating the expressions on these little egg-faced treats! The milk truffles are smooth and melt in the mouth with a light whipped texture - no wonder they’re a Happy Egg.

10. Stas Chocolatier Milk Chocolate Baby Bear, £8
– Best chocolate character
Forget about the Easter bunny, it's all about the Easter baby bear! Made from rich and creamy Belgian chocolate, this is great for those who want to find something a little different in their Easter egg hunt.
