Easter Egg Hunt Eggs

Suzie — Wed, 23 Mar 2011 17:40:04 +0000

Easter egg hunts are just lots of fun, I love them and they are a great activity to keep both the kids and adults entertained over the Easter weekend.

There are a few different ways to run your own Easter egg hunts, depending on the age of the children (or adults), the amount of children and how many eggs you want to buy or you can just pop along to an organised egg hunt in your area.

One of the most important elements to your own Easter egg hunt, apart from enjoying yourself of course, are the eggs.

Hollow Easter Egg Hunt Eggs

Foil wrapped hollow chocolate eggs are good for a Easter egg hunts for a few reasons; if you are having a hunt outdoors the eggs are protected from the elements, there isn’t too much chocolate in them so kids can have more than one and they are less messy if the crack or get squished.

If you are after lots of small(ish) eggs, Hotel Chocolat has two boxes of eggs perfect for Easter eggs hunts; the Oodles of Eggs box contains 50 foil wrapped eggs and the Eggstravaganza Crate, 17 eggs and a large extra thick Easter egg. All the small eggs are 40% milk chocolate and are great bulk buy options.

Montezuma’s also have a box of foil wrapped eggs, The Big Egg Hunt box contains 20 eggs in a mixture milk and white chocolate, all the chocolate is organic.

All of these eggs are about the same size as a standard hens eggs, just the right size for little hands.

Cadburys have two types of hollow eggs ideal for hiding about the house or garden, the Cadbury Eggheads, these are brightly coloured with cheeky faces on the foil and come in an assortment of six designs.

The other eggs are the Cadbury Treasure Eggs, these come in three different flavours – although hollow they do have two mini eggs inside.

Both types of eggs are much larger that the Hotel Chocolat and Montezuma’s eggs, the Eggheads are 105mm tall and the Treasure Eggs are 135mm tall – much easier to find in the undergrowth and because they are sold as single eggs you can get the specific amount you need.

Filled Easter Egg Hunt Eggs

Foil wrapped filled mini eggs are also great for egg hunts, these normally come in two sizes the classic Cadbury Crème egg, smaller than a hen’s egg and the small mini eggs, these are normally smaller versions of the mini eggs and are half as small again.

Thornton’s have three different flavoured Treat Eggs, Marc de Champagne, Melts Praline and Melts Caramel – each egg is sold separately and they also have a Easter Egg Hunt Basket filled with a selection of the Treat Eggs, eighteen eggs in total.

I really like this basket; it has a very traditional look about it and would make a great Easter display filled with Easter eggs and can be used year after year.

Probably the best known mini eggs are from Cadburys, available in most shops, newsagents and supermarket around Easter. But if you want to buy in bulk the best place to get them is online, both Cadbury Creme Eggs and Cadbury Caramel Mini Eggs can be bought in boxes of 48 from Cadbury Gifts Direct.

Also from Cadbury are the Easter Egg Trail Packs which contains eighteen (small) mini eggs and the Easter Egg Trail Kit a hamper of chocolate with a selection of different sized hollow and filled eggs, both contain everything you need for your own big or small event.

chocolatebuttons also have bulk buy options for Mars, Galaxy and Lindt filled eggs in their filled Easter eggs section.

Lots and Lots of Mini Mini Eggs

Every now and then you just need a kilo or two if mini eggs and luckily you can buy them, both chocolatebuttons and The Chocolate Trading Company have foiled mini eggs by the bucketload, well in bags and drums.

The Lindt mini eggs are the smallest; each egg is about 25mm tall, solid milk chocolate and are in an assortment of different coloured foil wrappers. The eggs are available in three different pack sizes, a 200g bag, a 1kg bag or a massive 2kg drum.

The Chocolate Trading Company’s own brand eggs are larger; each egg is 40mm, filled milk, white and dark chocolate and are also in an assortment of different coloured foil wrappers. These are only available in a 1kg bag.

You can of course have any combination of eggs for your Easter egg hunt; whenever I have one I normally have one large Easter egg per child/person, which has their name and they have to find, so everyone gets at least one larger egg and lots of little eggs hollow and filled for everyone to find as they look for their larger eggs. Just have fun with it.

So when you ask “What type of Easter egg would you like?” and you get the rather vague “I don’t know” reply – this is the perfect egg choice.

Made from the award winning house blends of organic chocolate from Montezuma’s, each egg, three in total, has a minimum weight 150g and they look deliciously wonderful too!
