The Real Easter Egg

I know you're just recovering from Christmas and for weeks you've been bemoaning the fact that the shops are already full of Easter eggs but...

...Easter will be here sooner than you expect. Tomorrow I will be writing about Lent - Pancake Day is only two weeks away today.

I know that Easter has nothing to do with eggs - particularly eggs of the chocolate variety - and I know that so many of our annual festivals are driven by big retailers wanting to make money (think Valentine's Day, Mother's Day, Father's Day, Halloween as well as Easter and Christmas) but...

...if you're the sort of person who buys chocolate Easter eggs then have you considered The Real Easter Egg?

The Real Easter Egg is a FairTrade chocolate egg, which actually tells the Easter story through the printing on the box and the booklet enclosed. These eggs can be bought in certain supermarkets and independent shops, or online, or if you're quick you can place an order at CBC on Sunday.

To see their full range, get more information, read about their charity work, or place an online order visit their website.
