21/04/2011 by Ruth Holroyd 2 Comments

Buying chocolate, and Easter eggs in particular for someone with allergies can be daunting. Are there hidden ingredients that you haven’t spotted? How can you be completely sure that the one you buy is the right one? Well things are getting better every year for those with dairy, nut and wheat allergies as the number of great tasty and allergen free options grows every year. Here is a rundown of some that I have spotted in the shops.

What is you want allergen free mini eggs?

These are harder to find. But here are a few options:

  • Tesco – Do their own brand mini eggs in the free from range
  • D&D also have mini eggs.
  • Moo Free – They do some white chocolate mini eggs. Ingredients: Sugar, cocoa butter [36%], rice flour, natural flavouring, emulsifier (sunflower lecithin). The following potential allergens may have come in contact with this product in transport, packing or production: Nuts
  • Whizzers used to do them but I’m not sure if they’ve gone out of business.

What’s your favourite free from easter egg?

Did you get an allergen free Easter egg? Which one did you get? Was it tasty? Happy Easter everyone, from What Allergy!

PS. Hint Hint – if you’re buying one for me it needs to be dairy, soya protein and nut free please! Soya Lecithin is OK for me, just not milk, powder, flour or protein.

Hello, I’m Ruth, author and blogger

Hi I'm Ruth. I've grown up with eczema and multiple life-threatening allergies and collected more as I've got older.  It started with a peanut allergy and now I'm allergic to milk, wheat, soya and many more. In this blog I share tips, advice and things I've learnt living with allergies, asthma and eczema with a focus on topical steroid withdrawal. You can buy my books, which are brilliant by the way! The first is Anaphylaxis: The essential guide and the second, The Shape of Skin, healing poems for eczema and sensitive skin. The reviews speak for themselves. If you want to chat you can find me on Instagram, Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn (links below). Do get in touch. And please comment on blogs, it makes a humble blogger do a little happy dance!
