The Best Easter Chocolates Money Can Buy
Which Easter Chocolates Are You Putting in Your Baskets This Year?
Each and every spring millions of chocolate lovers look forward to getting Easter Chocolates in their baskets, but it's important to remember that not all chocolate is created equal. The question is, which companies are known for producing the best of the best? To make your Easter shopping a little bit easier this year, I'm giving you the top names in the world of chocolate.
L.A. Burdick
It's not a name known amongst the casual chocolate lover, but die-hard chocolate fans know L.A. Burdick well. Each of their handmade chocolates is crafted from only the best ingredients, and artificial flavorings and extracts are never a factor.
If you want the best Easter chocolates money can buy, L.A. Burdick is definitely a contender. Just make sure you're ready to pay the price. At $18 for a box of 16 chocolates, this stuff doesn't come cheap.
Godiva
Of course no list of gourmet Easter chocolates would be complete without the name Godiva. The brand has made quite the name for itself, becoming quite the luxury chocolate icon. But if you thought L.A. Burdick was expensive, Godiva is really going to be a shocker. An 8-piece box of truffles is going to run you about $16.
Ghirardelli
If you want luxury chocolate taste but don't want to spend an arm and a leg on your Easter chocolates, then Ghirardelli is going to be a lifesaver. The quality is top notch, but the prices won't break your budget. An Easter egg tin with assorted chocolates will only set you back $6 this year.
The Tried and True Favorites
Of course gourmet isn't always everyone's cup of tea. If your gift recipient's tastes tend to be a bit more subdued, then tried and true names like Hershey, Cadbury and Fannie May will be right up their alley, and you can find them at most local grocery stores.
And remember, no matter which Easter chocolates you buy this year, it's the thought that really matters. Let's not forget the true reason for the Easter celebration. The giving and receiving of Easter chocolates is just an added bonus.
