Nestle Aero Peppermint Bubbles Egg - 188g

Aero Peppermint has been a fixture of British sweet shops for as long as most of us can remember. It was the mint one in the multipack, the one that went first, and its Easter egg has been turning up in the egg aisle of British supermarkets every spring for years.

Easter in Canada comes with plenty of chocolate of its own. But if your memory of Easter morning is an Aero egg on the kitchen table and a sibling eyeing it up, then this is the egg you go looking for, and nothing else scratches quite that itch.

This is a 188g egg, boxed, so it looks the part on the table or tucked into a basket. Keep it somewhere cool and dry, well away from the radiator and the sunny windowsill, and out of sight of anyone with a mint habit. It makes a good final prize for an egg hunt.

People who pick this up tend to fill the basket with other Aero favourites and a few more British Easter eggs, so nobody at the table ends up empty-handed. The mint egg, of course, is already spoken for.
