Bottom of the ranking
The lowest-rated egg was Co-op’s Salted Caramel Crunch. It scored 3 out of 10.
Reviewers found the dairy-free chocolate flavour unusual. The caramel note felt weak despite the sea salt claim.
M&S Speckled Egg (12)
This hollow milk chocolate egg scored 4 out of 10. It offered a smooth shell and a bag of mini speckled eggs.
The shell’s texture was silky but slightly powdery. The overall impact lacked depth for the price.
Morrisons Golden Opulence (11)
Morrisons’ take combined milk and dark chocolate. Tasted elements included toffee, honeycomb and puffed rice.
The egg was thick and richly made. It came in golden packaging and included four small filled eggs inside.
Middle performers
Several eggs offered novelty but not consistent flavour. These sat around the mid-table in our ranking.
Tesco Seville Orange & Dark Chocolate (10)
Tesco’s egg featured dark chocolate and citrus notes. It was easy to bite and decorated with gold specks.
Its flavour profile favoured bold dark chocolate lovers. It did not match the top milk chocolate entries.
Co-op Neapolitan and Marbled Millionaire (9–8)
Co-op’s Neapolitan combined milk, white and strawberry layers. A wafer crumb added slight crunch.
The Marbled Millionaire mixed Fairtrade white and dark chocolate. It included clotted cream fudge and shortbread pieces.
Aldi Disco and Pistachio Layer (7–6)
Aldi’s Disco egg used popping candy for theatrical texture. The candy effect was subtle on tasting.
The Pistachio Layer impressed with a creamy, nut-forward profile. Its triangular shape gave a premium feel.
Top contenders
The top five eggs combined balanced flavours and smart construction. These stood out on taste and texture.
Morrisons Belgium Blonde Chocolate (5)
Scoring 7 out of 10, this egg delivered pretzel and honeycomb notes. It evoked a Caramac-like character.
The shell had attractive floral decoration. A slightly salty edge divided opinion.
Tesco Double-layer Salted Pretzel Egg (4)
Tesco’s layered approach paired milk chocolate with a white inner layer. Pretzel pieces and sea salt featured prominently.
Reviewers praised the white chocolate inner layer. The egg was indulgent and well balanced.
M&S The Custard Cream Egg (3)
This product recreated a popular biscuit flavour. Creamy milk chocolate combined with crunchy biscuit pieces.
It scored 7.5 out of 10. Some tasters wanted more biscuit throughout the shell.
Asda Caramel Pretzel & Honeycomb (2)
Asda’s egg earned an 8 out of 10. Salted caramel milk chocolate paired well with honeycomb and pretzel bits.
The texture was easy to bite but tricky to crack. The design remained comparatively simple.
M&S The Big Daddy Pistachio (1)
The top-rated egg scored a perfect 10. It combined thick milk chocolate, soft caramel and roasted pistachio pieces.
The half-loaded presentation included caramel chunks and white chocolate pistachio centre. It impressed on both flavour and design.
Conclusions
Filmogaz.com found clear winners and underwhelming options. The list highlighted variety across price points.
For value, Aldi offered fun choices. For indulgence, M&S and Asda led the pack.
