We've spent the season tracking down Easter eggs and chocolates that actually deserve a spot in your Gloucester home. The usual supermarket rows of foil-wrapped plastic are nowhere to be seen here—instead, we've found makers who've put real craft into their Easter offerings, from small-batch chocolate eggs to hand-finished lollies that look as good as they taste.
Whether you're after something to hide around the garden, a gift box to send to someone special, or a treat to keep for yourself, the independents we've sourced deliver right into Gloucestershire. No synthetic flavourings, no mass-produced sameness—just chocolatiers who know what they're doing.
A collection built for the whole Easter occasion. This brings together a mix of chocolate pieces and treats designed to work as a proper gift rather than a single item—the kind of thing that gives you options, whether you want a few pieces now or something to ration through the season.
Six individual chocolates shaped like eggs, each filled with salted caramel. The salt-and-sweet combination cuts through richness in a way that keeps you coming back for the next one, and the box format makes it genuinely giftable—no faffing with wrapping.
This one marries two textures: a proper chocolate lolly in the style children recognise, alongside a scatter of miniature eggs. It's the kind of thing that bridges generations—familiar enough for younger tastes but made with enough care that adults find it genuinely good.
A step up in scale, these are substantial chocolate lollies designed to make an impression. They arrive finished to a standard that suggests someone's actually bothered with the details—not just melted and moulded, but considered.
A practical pairing: a chocolate slab to eat now, paired with hot chocolate powder that keeps giving long after the egg's gone. It's letterbox-sized too, so if you're sending something to someone in the Forest of Dean or out towards the Cotswolds, it travels easily without fuss.
White and milk chocolate in one lolly—a genuinely elegant approach to the Easter lollipop. The contrast of the two chocolates means it's visually interesting as well as flavourful, and it's the sort of thing that looks right whether you're hiding it for a hunt or giving it as a gift.
