Our Top Chocolate Treats for Easter
Easter is a massive time for all confectionery retailers. There’s an unmatched demand for chocolate of all kinds. Stocking your shelves with great choices when chocolate is on the mind is no bad idea, supplying shoppers with the easter chocolate their hearts desire.
Getting prepared early gives you a better chance of capitalising on the demand. From special edition bars to seasonal classics, our range here at Hancocks is full of stock that's perfect for supplementing your selection of Easter eggs. For more than sixty years, we have been providing businesses with the confectionery that shoppers love. Over the years we've taken note as countless trends blend into the Easter season - read on for our picks of what will lines will be a hit for Easter 2025.
Chocolate Easter Bunnies
In the run-up to Easter, it’s best to start adding any extra bits of chocolate to your shelves well in advance. That way you’ll be ready for those customers getting prepared early, whilst also being ahead when the rush does come around - preparing early for Easter is key to growing sales. It will also provide a timely reminder for shoppers that Easter is on the way!
A staple of Easter is the Lindt Milk Chocolate Gold Bunny. The Swiss chocolate bunny is a classic symbol of Easter, so these delicious foiled chocolates are bound to go down a treat with your customers. The Thornton's White Chocolate Bunny is a beautiful option that's full of character—and moreish white chocolate indulgence. Another seasonal favourite, the Kinder Bunny Milky Caramel offers a superb chocolatey pick with a totally different flavour profile. Whilst not a bunny shape, we think shoppers will also love the Kinder Hen Figure, with it's adorable design and signature milky chocolate shell with a milky lining!
Mini & Filled Eggs
At Easter, chocolate eggs take over. With so many mini and filled chocolate egg options, it is easy to put together a selection that will have your customers licking their lips! From Easter egg hunt kits to eggs with delicious centres, there are plenty of options that will enhance any Easter offering.
Chocolate singles sell well all year round and adding some seasonal variations into your stock can help to boost sales further. There are a number of products that tick this box, but where better to start than with a Cadbury Creme Egg? The fondant-filled chocolate egg is a hit year after year, as shoppers make the most of getting them while they can. We've also got the super-sweet Cadbury Creme Egg White, whilst the super-indulgent new Cadbury Biscoff Egg will hit the spot like nothing else! Only available from January until Easter, there will be maximum demand for Creme Eggs as they once again make their mark.
When it comes to a selection of mini eggs, you’ll find options from the most popular brands here at Hancocks. The Dairy Milk Easter Egg Hunt Cartons are perfect for young families, enabling them to easily prepare an Easter egg hunt with Cadbury favourites.
The Lindor Filled Egg is a luxurious option that fans of Lindt chocolate will struggle to resist – the same goes for their Gold Bunny Milk & White Chocolate Mini Eggs! Their soft, creamy filling is as luxurious as any of Lindt’s lush chocolates.
Of all the flavoured chocolates, orange has been popular in recent years. Terry’s are masters of this flavour, as you're sure to know, and their Chocolate Orange Mini Eggs are a popular choice. However, shoppers have shown loyalty to familiar flavours and names in recent years, so steadfast tastes like Kinder Bueno Milk Chocolate & Hazelnut Mini Eggs are sure to generate a buzz.
Sharing Chocolate
Families often get together at Easter and having some delicious chocolate to share can make the good times even sweeter. Here at Hancocks, we have baskets full of great sharing options that customers will love this Easter, from wholesale sharing bags to cartons and chocolate bars.
There are great options from the biggest brands, with classics and seasonal specials that shoppers will adore. For fans of white chocolate, it’s hard to compete with the Milkybar Mini Eggs. They’re just as creamy as the bars we all know and love, but they’re egg-shaped and in a bag for sharing. There are other chocolate share bags that turn beloved chocolate into sharable treats, such as the Ferrero Rocher Original Golden Eggs Bag. The Baileys Salted Caramel Mini Eggs offer plenty of indulgence for sweet lovers and fans of the Irish Cream Liqueur alike!
Between them, the biggest names in the chocolate industry make sure that there are options for every taste. So whether your shoppers crave the luxury of Lindt, the boldness of new flavours, or classic Cadbury classics like Mini Eggs, there are wholesale Easter share bags to meet their needs.
