Say “I love you” this Easter with an egg that looks like it should be on display in the Louvre.

It seems like a lifetime ago now, but do you remember the Great Easter Egg Shortage of 2021? In another typically lockdown-esque turn of events, people stockpiled chocolate like toilet paper and in the days before Easter Sunday there wasn’t an egg to be had in the country.

This year, some supermarkets are finding ways to avoid another shortage such as limiting eggs to 15 per customer, but you can also get ahead of the curve yourself by ordering an egg from one of these Irish businesses. Hand painted, Nutella stuffed, hare-shaped – whatever you’re into, there’ll be an egg on this list for you.

Arcane Chocolate

Based in Dublin, Arcane’s eggs are hand painted and layered on the inside with your choice of toasted biscuit and caramel, fruit and yogurt or pistachio and praline. Have a look at all their chocolatey delights HERE.

Lir’s Easter collection includes a nutty praline egg, a Bailey’s sundae egg and even a Guinness egg with miniature chocolate pints. That’s just about as Irish as they come.
