Celebrating Easter & all its glory

Celebrating Easter & all its glory

Easter is the preferred holiday for those with a sweet tooth as well as spending time with their families. But what is it?

Easter Sunday is a Christian festival celebrating the resurrection of Jesus Christ symbolising that death is not the end. Some Christians attend church on the Sunday whereas some have family over for the traditional roast lamb and the exchange of Easter eggs.

So what do eggs have to do with Easter? The egg is the symbol of new life, which were not allowed to be eaten during the week leading up to Easter, known as Holy Week. They were saved and decorated then given to children as gifts.

With the eggs popularity flourishing over the years, they remain a great gift to give over Easter. We’ve created a colourful infographic all about the Nation’s favourite egg and its chocolatey goodness – enjoy!
