Celebrate a Palm Oil free Easter with Beanies!

Chocolate Easter eggs just don’t seem to be flying off the shelves like they used to! So what’s the deal with Easter eggs in 2026?

Over recent years, the price of Easter eggs has sky rocketed, with the majority of average sized eggs costing £7-£15! Consumers have also not failed to notice the distinct change in size and shape of the regular Easter egg meaning many companies are selling less chocolate for a higher price! The ingredients list of many Easter eggs has also changed over time. Now, a key ingredient in the eggs made by companies such as Cadbury, Nestle and Galaxy, is Palm Oil.

What is palm oil?

Palm Oil comes from the fruit of oil palm trees. It’s a very versatile oil that is odourless and colourless, so doesn’t effect the taste of food when used.

So why are people opposed to Palm Oil? Palm Oil hugely increases deforestation. This destroys the habitats of already endangered animals such as the Orangutan, Pygmy Elephant and Sumatran Rhino. This forest loss impacts the amount of greenhouse gasses expelled into the atmosphere, contributing to climate change. The Palm Oil industry is also known to exploit workers and child labour.

Good Housekeeping has identified that many supermarkets and chocolatiers have opted not to use Palm Oil in their Easter eggs in 2026. They identified that M&S, Tesco, Aldi and brands such as Toni’s Chocolonely, Hotel Chocolate and Lindt have kept their eggs Palm Oil free! The eggs on this list range from £4.99-£90! So there’s a Palm Oil free treat for all budgets!
