Honestly, Easter has to be up there with one of the best holidays of the year; we get blessed with the gift of inhaling chocolate guilt free, presents-a-plenty, a four day weekend and way less pressure than Christmas get-togethers.
While Easter is an eggcelent excuse to eat our body weight in chocolate, perhaps controversially, the day doesn’t have to be *all* about chocolate. If you’re trying to keep your waist line in check – or are simply looking for a less clichéd easter gift, we’ve put together a range of different gifts that’ll have the Easter bunny beat.
Hot-Cross-Bun-Flavored Gin & Gin-Flavored-Chocolate Pack – $45.95
Gifting Baileys for Easter is a totally predictable snoozefest. So, why not hit the easter egg out of left field and go for the totally random – but unclichéd – combo of gin and chocolate? If you’re in the mood to ~mix things up~ Dan Murphy’s have your back with their hot-cross-bun-flavored-gin and gin-flavored-chocolate (I need a drink just from typing that). They’ve even thrown in some tonic for good measure. The gin-credible (lol) gift pack includes:
- 50ml Fossey’s Hot Cross Bun Gin
- 50ml Anther Chocolate Gin
- 2 x Capi Tonic
- 45g Four Pillars x Huntered+Gathered Gin Chocolate
Choclab’s Personalized Choccy – Prices start from $4.00

While chocolate is a top tier treat, obvi a gift containing personalized chocolate manages to one up the OG. Australian’s own Chocolab have you covered with a bunch of confectionary that’ll have you drooling all over your keyboard. Better yet, you can have your loved ones names – or sweet nothings dedicated to them – scribbled all over the sweets. They’re also not opposed to penning some filthy messages, as demonstrated in their insta pic above. I MEAN, need I say more:

Kakadu-Plum-Co’s Indigenous Flavoured Gift Packs – Prices start from $12.75
Buying gifts can be stressful – and time consuming – thankfully, the good peeps over at Kakadu-Plum-Co have taken the hard work out for us – while not only managing to keep our waistlines in check, but also supporting Indigenous farmers and local growers across Australia. Their selection of gift packs include goodies such as a drool inducing ‘Lemon Myrtle and Kakadu Plum Vegan Bar’.
Not a choccy fan (btw, u ok hun?)? Kakadu-Plum-Co also offer a ‘Easter Wine and Nibble hamper’ as well as ‘Kangaroo Island Honey-Coated Popcorn’. Interestingly, Kangaroo Island’s pristine environment is home to the only pure strain of Ligurian Bees in the world – and it’s their sweet nectar that’s drizzled all over these heavenly kernels.
Nutella EarPods – $24.95
Sure, Easter certainly doesn’t have to be all about chocolate, but it doesn’t hurt to jump on the choccy bandwagon and draw a bit of inspiration from the sweet treat. Cue: Nutella AirPods cases. Genius! The cute AirPods case doubles as a keyring and draws inspiration from everyones favorite chocolate spread. Better yet, the adorable case won’t burn a hole in your pocket.
