    That looks amazing, probably a bit beyond my budget though. I've already had half a Cadbury Buttons egg that I was given (other half and buttons inside still to go...) and I intend to buy at least one more, maybe a Chok-a-blok egg from Tesco that I've seen rave reviews of. I expect some mini eggs will be on the cards too.


    Oh I love the Chok-a-blok icecream with the honeycomb in it. Unbelievably our small, local Tescos don't have any of the eggs in! My Dad sends me a ruddy massive Hotel Chocolate egg every year (one of the giant £60+ jobs) that always goes to waste so this year I persuaded him to send the salted caramel egg sandwich instead which is actually pretty reasonable at approx £8.

    If you have a chok-a-blok egg - do report back with a review. They look lush!

    Probably get one in the sales, after the zombie Jesus worshippers have lost interest and it becomes a buyer's market.

    Nope. If I buy an egg, I will eat the whole thing so I would rather not have any at all

    I am getting a bag of mini-Malteaster bunnies this year - hopefully I can be good and ration them over a few days, but if not - the whole bag is only 310 calories, so I will just need to do an extra workout to compensate!!

    I already bought mine at the Spring Equinox.....was there anything else happening at this time of year? :wink:

    What about you? Will it be a day of massive indulgence, slight indulgence or will you resist the temptation?
    I avoid massive indulgence and extreme denial every day of the year. I will eat a moderate amount of chocolate.

    What is a Cadbury egg with mini eggs inside?!?!?
    Cadbury do large chocolate shell eggs with other chocolates inside (at least they do in the UK). The insides may be chocolate buttons, or Roses, or mini eggs. Not necessarily anything to do with Cadbury Creme eggs, although they also do the chocolate shell eggs filled with creme eggs.

    They do look good, just have to decide which variety!

    I just look at the prices and think "Really Tesco? Who do you think you are?"

    I don't think they're allowed to put choking hazards inside Amercian's chocolate.......

    I hate Tesco, but I'm willing to give in to them on this occasion!

    I will have a few small chocolate eggs and some black jelly beans! Can't wait!

    No but I don't like them. Also, I am pregnant and the thought of chocolate makes me sick to the stomach. I know, I am so lucky to lose my sweet tooth for 9 months. But, I do plan on taking all the red jelly beans out of all my kids easter eggs. My kids will never know what a red jelly bean tastes like. Love love love them.

    I will be giving and exchanging eggs, but this year I aim to savour them and not just inhale them!

    Not an egg, but I had to keep walking past that "milk flavored" white little bunny.

    Of coarse I will! I refuse to make this a "diet". I will just make sure that it fits into my day. Even though I've been slacking a little lately, I intend to make this a sustainable change.

    I bought myself a bunch of goodies for Easter, I haven't had a cheat day since my birthday back in February, so I see no harm in enjoying myself with a bunch of candy :happy: I bought a small package of mini eggs, a creme egg, and some peeps and Japanese mochi to share :flowerforyou:

    I had three. Or four? They came in a multipack anyway, and I had one a day. They weren't as good as I remembered, which was a bummer.

    I dunno what's going to happen come Halloween and I find out that I don't actually really care for candy corn. :(

    If someone GAVE me really good chocolate then I would have some but I won't buy it. If they buy me cheap chocolate it will probably end up in the trash (like most did at Christmas). I do like Jolly Rancher jelly beans and I pick out the ones I like... :p

    Last year I didn’t, I had a sugar free dark chocolate bar but this year I think I will have one or maybe two!

    What about you? Will it be a day of massive indulgence, slight indulgence or will you resist the temptation?

    If I can find a reasonable-sized one that's organic and has toffee chunks in it, I might go in for it!

    YES! Cut the top off the Easter Egg - fill it with Baileys. Drink the Baileys and then eat the egg! :drinker:

    Genius!! :drinker:

    And yes, I've already been eating them!! I have an endless supply of Dove dark chocolate mini eggs on hand. YUM.

    I will eat my whole calorie allowance in chocolate, then maybe go to the gym and do the same in the afternoon :devil:

    Or I might just get drunk

    Yup. Those smaller sized Reese eggs are only 90 cals each. Awesome snack! If you can eat just one...
