With Easter just around the corner, I decided to round-up some of my favourite eco Easter eggs.
Many Easter eggs are over-packaged in unnecessary plastic that is near impossible to recycle. After Christmas, this is the time of the year where we go, once again, in packaging and waste overdrive.
Here are my 6 favourite eco Easter eggs suitable for either adults or children. The ethical credentials I have been on the lookout for are: little to no plastic, organic, vegan, no (unsustainable) palm oil as well as fair trade accreditation.
Montezuma’s Eco Eggs are wrapped in an innovative eco-friendly packaging made of just two parts: a sturdy biodegradable paper outer shell/sleeve and a foil wrapping.
Made from 150g of quality organic goodness. Children will enjoy the crunchy organic milk chocolate egg with butterscotch as well as the creamy organic white chocolate egg with raspberry. Vegans and dark chocolate lovers will relish the truly delicious vegan organic dark chocolate eggs with cocoa nibs.

Smooth and creamy, Like No Udder Button Egg is made from organic milk chocolate alternative without the dairy. Ideal for vegans or anyone intolerant to lactose. This vegan Easter egg comes with organic chocolate buttons (wrapped in a small plastic bag). The chocolate is a bit darker than conventional milk chocolate and boosts lots of Montezuma’s character.
