Best vegan Easter eggs: dairy, wheat and gluten free options

 (Vegan Easter Egg)
(Vegan Easter Egg)

Easter is coming with Good Friday kicking things off earlier this year on April 2.

For many, this time of year is synonymous with the indulgence of decadent chocolate-filled snacks. However past years have seen vegan friends and those with intolerances left out of the chocolate extravaganza - well, no longer.

We’ve scoured the market to find the biggest selection of plant-based and free from Easter eggs to date.

From luxury chocolatiers, to our trusteed supermarket favourites, you’ll be able to find dairy, gluten and wheat-free varieties that taste as good as the real thing and in an almost endless array of flavour combinations. You really won’t know the difference.

There’s no egg-scuses now not to get cracking.

Chocolarder Gola 60% Oat Milk Easter Egg

Committed to sustainability, Chocolarder is renowned for its practices that are both kind to the people and planet. The brand opts for low carbon solutions and sources its ingredients in partnership with charities like The Gala Rainforest that ensures local farmers protect the local fauna and flora as they work. This egg is made from just three ingredients; cocoa beans, unrefined raw sugar and gluten free oats and tastes as creamy as you would expect a milk chocolate variety to taste while being dairy-free.

H!P Oat Milk Salted Caramel Easter Egg

Founded by the great-great-great-grandson of another rather famous chocolatier, James Cadbury launched H!P to give those following a plant-based lifestyle a chance to enjoy some chocolatey goodness. The result is a range of smooth and creamy bars that use oat milk and cocoa sourced from a family business in Columbia and supports sustainable farming practices. For Easter, find this egg - a Salted Caramel Oat Milk - that tastes just like the real thing.
