Choco-licious Easter Treats 

Easter just isn’t Easter without a chocolate bunny! Who doesn’t love starting their day with a sweet treat? Lindt’s chocolates are the perfect way to make your Easter celebrations even more magical and fun.

Lindt’s GOLD BUNNY is a must-have for any Easter basket or as a prize for the ultimate egg hunt champion. This charming chocolate bunny is sure to put a smile on the faces of everyone in your family.

You can also use chocolate as décor for your Easter Brunch place settings and the Floral Edition of the Lindt GOLD BUNNY look stunning adorned with colourful flowers and accented with a red ribbon and gold bell!

Hoppy Treats for Everyone

Who says bunnies have to have all the fun at Easter? This year, let’s throw some hippos into the mix with Healthy Hippo candy! This candy is not only delicious but it’s also sweetened with Monk Fruit, making it a healthier choice for you and your family.

This candy also won’t stick to your mouth, so you can enjoy every bite without any funky aftertaste. Plus, Healthy Hippo candy doesn’t contain sugar alcohol or stevia, which can sometimes upset your stomach. There’s also a flavour for everyone’s taste whether you like sweet, sour or even fizzy!
