Where can you get the best Easter eggs?

Chocolate lovers should head to Yorkshire this year to find Britain's best Easter egg, with famous tea shop Betty's winning the crown.

In a blind taste test by Good Housekeeping, the York-based family firm came top with its Trio of Spring Flower Eggs, costing £27.50 for 250g. Luckily for chocoholics, the eggs are also available online.

And there's a joint winner that's even easier to get hold of - Tesco's Finest Belgian Milk Chocolate Hidden Egg, costing £15. The judges praised its decadent look and 'meltingly smooth chocolate.'

The team rated 127 eggs to find the best for kids, teens, adults, sharing and free-from, scoring them for appearance, aroma, texture and taste.

And, they warn, many are going for looks rather than flavour.

"Retailers have definitely upped their game with innovative and eye-catching products but, disappointingly, much of the chocolate failed to deliver on taste," says Caroline Bloor, consumer director at Good Housekeeping.

And the winners show that it's possible to get really good chocolate without breaking the banks. The winner for kids, for example, is the Aldi Dairyfine Giant Chocolate Bunny at just £3.99, described as 'rich and creamy' with a 'deliciously moreish flavour'.

And Iceland won the Best for Teens category with its £4 Honeycomb & Caramel egg - a white chocolate egg with a centre packed with honeycomb, chewy caramel and chocolate-coated biscuit bites.

Thorntons won the Best for Sharing category with its £10 giant Continental egg, which comes with a selection of indulgent truffles. The judges described it as 'a crowd-pleaser with a rich cocoa aroma that gets the mouth watering'.

And topping the taste test for free-from eggs are joint winners Asda Free from Egg with Choc Orange Discs, costing £4.00, and Booja Booja Fine De Champagne Chocolate Truffles, at £24.99.

Asda's egg has a crisp snap when bitten and melts nicely in the mouth, say the judges. Meanwhile, Booja Booja's truffles scored highly for their smooth creamy centre and rich cocoa - along with a dose of strong liquor.

World's most expensive Easter egg on sale for £25,000

The eggs are all pretty cheap compared with the elaborate creations launched last year by Choccywoccydoodah, which went on sale last year for £25,000.

And in 2006, La Maison du Chocolat in Piccadilly launched a Diamond Stella egg for £50,000 - though in this case the price was bumped up pretty considerably by the diamons with which it was encrusted..
