We set out to find Easter chocolate that would arrive in time for Nottingham households, tracking down independent makers who've put real thought into their eggs and treats rather than churning out mass-produced plastic-wrapped stock. What struck us across our search was how many small producers have moved beyond the hollow supermarket egg—there's flavour, there's craft, and there's proper chocolate involved.
Whether you're after something to give or to keep for yourself through the Easter weekend, here's what we found works best. Delivery to Nottingham from these makers is reliable, and you'll have your order well before the long weekend.
A mixed collection that lets you sample different makers' takes on Easter—proper craftspeople, not supermarket filler. What we liked was the variety packed in, which means you're not committing to just one flavour profile or style.
Lollies and mini eggs in one box, which hits that sweet spot if you want Easter chocolate but prefer something you can work through rather than demolish in one sitting. The maker has balanced luxury feel with actual restraint on portion size.
If plain dark doesn't do it for you and milk chocolate feels too one-note, this white and milk blend splits the difference. The lolly format means it stays fresh once the box is open, unlike a melting solid egg.
A slab of Easter egg chocolate paired with hot chocolate for making—there's something genuinely thoughtful about a maker sending both the celebration and something warming to go with it. Ideal if you're keen on morning hot chocolate through the holidays.
Six chocolates with salted caramel inside. Not an egg in the traditional sense, but a box that does the job if you prefer structured, bite-sized Easter chocolate over something you're carving into. The salt-caramel balance matters here, and this maker gets it right.
An entire collection of Easter lollies in different styles—the maker has clearly spent time thinking about what chocolate lolly actually means, beyond just melting cocoa butter into a stick mould. Each one tastes considered, not an afterthought.
