Don’t have a sweet tooth? Done with chocolate eggs? We’ve rounded up some of the best savoury delicacies to add to your Easter wishlist…
Easter doesn’t have to be all about chocolate eggs and indulging your sweet tooth. For those of us who prefer a savoury snack, there are now plenty of delicious ways to treat yourself over (or, let’s face it, in the weeks leading up to) the Easter bank holiday weekend.
Whether you’re looking for an attention-grabbing centrepiece for your Easter table or fancy a wine pairing that works with savoury nibbles, a selection of high street and speciality retailers have come to our rescue to make all our springtime snacking dreams come true.
From sophisticated hot cross bun flavours to a statement-making pork pie (via some truly egg-celent cheese Easter eggs), these are some of the savoury treats we’ll be adding to our Easter wishlist in 2023.
