Easter weekend is just a couple of weeks away and many people will be looking forward to tucking into some chocolate. It goes without saying that Easter eggs are a treat, rather than a healthy choice, but some might be looking to choose wisely in terms of calories.
The team at price-tracking website www.aletrtr.co.uk have analysed 76 Easter eggs on sale in large supermarkets around the UK, with the aim of highlighting those with the highest and lowest calorie counts per weight category. It said its research revealed that the average Easter egg portion size was 25g; while those in the under £3 range don’t state how many servings there are per pack, they typically sit around 100g, so presumably contain four servings, while both the £3 and £5 ranges typically feature six servings, and the £10 to £12 range offers between seven and 20 servings, with the average found to be 13.
