We've hunted down some proper Easter chocolate from makers across the UK who can get their eggs to Hull in time for the holidays. Whether you're after something to sit in the centre of your Easter table or gifts to tuck into baskets, the independent producers we've tracked down put genuine craft into their work—no mass-produced stuff.
The beauty of ordering from Hull is that you're spoilt for choice on timing. Most of these makers can post to the Humber quickly enough that you're not stressing about Easter morning arriving with empty baskets. We've picked a mix of styles: serious chocolate slabs for the grown-ups, lollies that feel a bit more playful, and some salted caramel numbers that bridge the two.
A mixed Easter hamper that doesn't rely on a single gimmick—what drew us to this was how it balances proper chocolate with a few clever surprises. Worth ordering early to Hull if you're buying for someone fussy about what goes in their Easter collection.
Here's where luxury and playfulness meet. A lolly paired with mini eggs that manages to feel indulgent without the pretension. This one's been a hit with Hull shoppers who want something a step above the supermarket but not so serious it can't make someone smile.
A letterbox delivery with a chocolate slab and hot chocolate mix—the kind of thing that works for Easter morning when it's grey outside and you want comfort as well as celebration. Two components means you're getting something to savour now and something to use later.
Six salted caramel chocolates in an Easter box—we found this appeals to people tired of plain milk chocolate eggs. The salt-sweet thing works whether you're eating them yourself or sending them to someone in Hull with discerning taste.
The ultimate lolly collection if you're after something a bit more theatrical. These are the kind of Easter gifts that sit proudly rather than disappear into a drawer.
White and milk chocolate layered into one lolly—a different take on the Easter egg formula. We picked this because it genuinely tastes like two chocolates rather than a gimmick, and it posts well to Hull.
