Nourish - 10 Bunny-Approved Vegan Easter Chocolate Treat Ideas
With Easter just around the corner, you may be in the midst of a hunt for the perfect vegan chocolate egg or sweet treat for yourself, a friend of a family member.
With vegan-friendly options and alternatives popping up all over the place nowadays (horray!), you can now easily find yourself some super tasty chocolate treats.
Plus, if you can get your hands on these tasties, you’ll easily be able to whip up your own vegan indulgences with the recipes below!
To save you the trouble of hunting for the best vegan and gluten-free delights out there, I’ve already done it for you!
Here are 10 Bunny-Approved Vegan Easter Chocolate Treat Ideas, all, of course, coming highly recommended by the Easter Rabbit himself 😉
Nobó
Nobó is an Irish company that produces insanely good vegan ice cream and handmade organic vegan chocolate. They focus on real, simple plant-based ingredients that are grown on trees. They never use any gums, stabilisers or anything you can’t pronounce. Their cocoa is ethically sourced from a single plantation that helps support its farmers and protects the remaining mountain gorillas.
Their products are dairy-free, vegan friendly, gluten-free, non GMO and contain no refined sugar, no soy.
For those of you who have turned vegan or have given up dairy for health reasons, this is one sweet treat to keep you safe from the feelings of missing out when it comes to seasonal chocolate fests like Easter!
Now although I highly encourage you to munch your way through their divine selection of flavours individually, alternatively you can try some chocolate based Easter-y recipes like these:
No. 1 – Doville’s Chocolate Almond Flour Brownie
Scroll down a bit through the page to find the recipe and add in your Nobó flavour of choice!
No. 2 – Lena’s Coyo and Chocolate Cheesecake
Again, scroll down a bit through the page and swap out the Vanoffee bar for Nobó Salted bar – yummm!!
No. 3 – Nobó Vanilla Choc’ Caramel Sundae
Ombar
What would life be without Ombars in it?!
These bars are an absolute gem when it comes to vegan chocolate, and are excellent for hiding on Easter egg hunts or whipping up into an Easter-themed chocolate dessert.
For anyone feeling like they’re missing out at Easter by not being able to chow down on non-vegan chocolate, these are your go-to guys!
With flavours ranging from dark, coconut, green tea through to strawberries and cream and coconut and vanilla centres, they have everyone’s taste buds covered.
Try giving these recipes a whirl this Easter:
No. 4 – Ombar Salted Dark Chocolate Pots
No. 5 – Ombar Ganache Tarts
No. 6 – Meringue Nests
No. 7 – Ombar Raw Vegan Cacao Brownies
And if you haven’t tried Ombar’s Chocolate Buttons yet, I seriously urge you to do so! As a kid, I loved chocolate buttons, so finding these organic, sugar cane free, raw cacao buttons as an adult was a dream come true! They are great for an alternative sweet snack and are wonderful when baking to decorate cakes and cupcakes.
Booja Booja
Booja-Booja is an artisan chocolate company very well known for their mouth-watering handmade delights. Their chocolates are all dairy, soya and gluten-free, organic, and vegan. Plus, they are all presented in beautiful and environmentally friendly packaging.
These make for an ideal Easter gift, whether in small treat sized packs (excellent for hiding!), or bigger sized packs. They’re also great for decorating an Easter cake or hiding inside home-made Easter eggshells. Available in many exciting flavours, there’s a chocolate to suit every taste.
And don’t forget their ice cream… If you like their truffles, you will love their dairy-free ice-cream available in our Nourish Stores!
FYI… Booja Booja’s are also an excellent swap for the Vanoffee bar in Lena’s Coyo and chocolate cheesecakes. I’ve tried and tested them many many times!
Alternatively, decorate your Easter cake with these or chop them up and mix them into brownie or pancake mixes – yummy!
For some more chocolate-themed Easter loveliness, grab yourself some bars of chocolate (feel free to use any of the following bars for example – Green and Blacks, Vivani, and iChoc) and make your own Easter bakes and treats. Here are some final ideas for you to try!
No. 8 – Paleo Crème Eggs from Free from Heaven
No. 9 – Vegan Chocolate Hazelnut Cake from Minimalist Baker
No. 10 – Iced Hot Cross Bun Cookies from The Little Blog of Vegan
Ok… I know this isn’t exactly chocolate related, but how adorable are these Hot Cross Bun cookies? Technically they do count as they do use a bit of cocoa powder for the icing! Dunk them in some vegan hot choccie and then they count as a chocolate treat right?! 😉
And there you have it – 10 Bunny-Approved Vegan Easter Chocolate Treat ideas for the vegan in your life.
I hope you all enjoy your vegan creations this Easter and have a merry time munching them all up.
