Cracking open massive chocolate Easter eggs is one of life’s simplest pleasures and with the Easter holiday fast approaching, it’s time to stock up on supplies to give to friends and family.
Or let’s be honest, even to indulge in yourself. We won’t tell.
Easter is being celebrated from Saturday April 16 to Sunday April 17 this year.
If you can’t get to one of these foodie eggstravaganzas (sorry, not sorry), the very least you can do is buy your mate an egg.
