We all want our children to be able to join in with the fun at Easter, but for kids with allergies, finding a suitable Easter egg is not always easy.
The good news is that each year more allergy friendly Easter treats are appearing. The bad news is that they do often sell out. So, you need to plan ahead!
Here I am sharing Easter eggs which are free from dairy, soy, gluten and nuts, as well as some extra options for those of you whose children are just dairy and/or soy free. As well as Easter eggs, I’ve included some chocolate bunnies and mini eggs in the mix!
If you’ve got a baby or younger child and are wanting to avoid that sugar high for one more year, I’ve also got some ideas for totally food free Easter goodies.
The best allergy friendly Easter eggs & treats for kids
The following list of allergy friendly Easter eggs and treats for kids should give you plenty to choose from! I have included the allergy information for each product. They are all dairy and soy free, and suitability for other top 14 allergens is specified. If there are any may contain warnings on the packaging then I have shown this so you can make an informed decision.
Ingredients were checked online in February 2024. Remember that ingredients can change without warning, so always double check.
Moo Free Easter eggs & treats – free from dairy, gluten, soya, peanut & tree nuts
Moo Free have long been making kid friendly free-from chocolates. In the last few years their range has grown considerably, and they have a fantastic Easter selection! Many of the Easter products are aimed at kids, which means lots of fun packaging.
Here are some of our favourites:
- Full sized eggs in a range of flavours including vegan milk chocolate, honeycomb, and rocky road. New for this year is a pink and white Strawberry Sundae egg, which is my pick for my daughter this year; very much up her street!
- A colourful Easter egg hunt box including 10 individually wrapped egg shaped chocolate bars. However, just be aware that these are not foil wrapped mini eggs like last year, they are egg shaped chocolates bars.
- You can also buy smaller packs of mini eggs and caramel mini eggs. If you want to wrap some for an Easter Egg hunt, you can get some mini colourful foils* on Amazon.
Allergen info: Dairy free, gluten free, soya free. There are no nuts in the ingredients list and regarding cross contamination risk they say “While we’re not a certified nut free facility, we have strict allergen controls on site, we operate a dedicated ‘Free From’ chocolate production facility, we do not handle any allergens. All raw material suppliers are risk assessed to ensure that there are no allergen cross-contamination risks in the supply chain.”

NOMO* (which pleasingly stands for No Missing Out) have got a great range of Easter eggs and other Easter themed treats available. Their products always pass the taste test with flying colours in our house! Here’s my pick of their Easter offering:
- A kid’s size egg with fun monster packaging. It also includes a chocolate lolly and some activities for extra entertainment.
- A cookie dough egg with a bunny shaped cookie dough bar. The bunny cookie dough bar is very cute and can also be purchased by itself. New for this year is a chocolate fudge version of the bunny bar and egg combo.
- Also new for 2024 is their creamy vegan chocolate egg which comes with a selection of their bars. This comes in both mini and full sized versions.
- There’s also a delicious full sized caramel egg which comes with a caramel bar.

Buttermilk Easter eggs – free from dairy, soy & gluten
Despite the name, Buttermilk is a completely dairy-free brand. Not only that, all the products below are free from soy and gluten too. The chocolate is really delicious, I especially love their honeycomb bars. The Easter range includes a choccy bunny and Easter eggs with flavours based on some of their bars.
The packaging and flavours are a good choice for slightly older kids – my 8 year old is a big fan! Here are two great options:
- A honeycomb blast chocolate egg and soldier (I want this one!!).

Alternatives to chocolate Easter eggs for kids – completely allergy free!
If you’d rather steer clear of sweet treats altogether, or if you are dealing with multiple allergies and finding it hard to get a suitable chocolate egg, there are plenty of non-food options which your little one will be delighted with. Below are some ideas for Easter themed gifts which swerve the chocolate altogether:
- Busy Easter* and Busy Easter Chicks* are two little interactive board books that are great for babies and toddlers – my kids absolutely loved their busy books when they were younger.
- For slightly older kids, this Egg Surprise counting game *would be perfect (recommended age 3 to 6 years).
- If you fancy an Easter themed craft activity, these finger painting books* are great fun.
- Usbourne has a lovely little Easter themed sticker book* and they also have an Easter puzzle book* for slightly older kids.
