5 Fun Reasons to Gift PLAYin CHOC This Easter

PLAYin CHOC are a leading UK-based manufacturer specialising in vegan and allergen-free chocolates, and they’ve truly outdone themselves with their latest offering. The ‘Just Choc’ and ‘Toy Choc’ box ranges are not only utterly delightful, but also perfect for gifting, especially at Easter.

We were kindly gifted these treats by PLAYin CHOC in exchange for our honest thoughts, and we’re excited to share our experience with you. Whether you’re shopping for your own children, nieces and nephews, or looking for something a bit different for an Easter egg hunt, we think PLAYin CHOC ticks all the boxes.

PLAYin CHOC’s chocolates are crafted to be free from dairy, nuts, gluten, soy, and refined sugars. They are also 100% organic and entirely plastic-free, making them one of the most ethical sweet treats you can gift. With a growing emphasis on sustainability, family wellbeing, and inclusivity, PLAYin CHOC proves that indulgence and responsibility can absolutely go hand-in-hand.

Inside the Box

Each PLAYin CHOC box is thoughtfully packaged, with a clear focus on sustainability and fun. So, what’s actually inside the box? Let’s take a peek:

Just Choc Box (30g, 60g, 100g sizes): Each includes 3, 6, or 10 individually wrapped 10g chocolate mini-bars. The packaging is plastic-free and compostable.

Toy Choc Boxes: Each box includes a 10g chocolate, a cardboard 3D puzzle toy to build, and a fun fact card.

The attention to detail in every box is evident. From the plant-based, home compostable film wrapping each chocolate to the hand-illustrated packaging, PLAYin CHOC clearly takes pride in both presentation and ethics.

So, why is PLAYin CHOC such a brilliant Easter gift?

Here are five fun reasons we think you’ll love these little boxes of joy – whether you’re shopping for little ones or even treating yourself!

Guilt-Free Chocolate That Actually Tastes Amazing

Let’s start with the obvious: the chocolate. We tried both the dark and m•lk chocolate varieties made from organic Peruvian cacao. The taste is rich, smooth and satisfying—a real surprise if you’ve tried vegan chocolate before and found it lacking. In fact, it’s so good you might not even realise it’s vegan. There’s no chalky aftertaste or odd texture here – just creamy, dreamy, melt-in-the-mouth goodness.

The ingredients list is beautifully short and simple. No artificial flavours, no hidden nasties – just a few high-quality, organic ingredients. It makes these chocolates a real treat for those with allergies, dietary restrictions, or simply families looking for a healthier alternative to traditional Easter sweets.

Even better, the portion sizes mean that children get to enjoy a sweet treat without the sugar overload. It’s the kind of chocolate parents can feel good about giving – and kids will be thrilled to receive.

The Surprise Factor of Toy Choc Boxes

The Toy Choc range is a real hit with children aged 3 and up. There’s something undeniably exciting about opening a box to discover not just a treat, but also a toy and fun facts inside. The 3D puzzle toys are simple enough for younger children to put together, yet creative enough to hold their interest. Some are animals, others are seasonal characters – perfect for imaginative play or even classroom themes.

The fact cards included offer snippets of interesting information, helping to spark curiosity and conversation. It’s a great way to combine learning and play, and ideal for parents who like to sneak a little education into fun. We love how these toys are also plastic-free and made from sustainably sourced, recycled board. So not only do they entertain, they’re eco-friendly too.

Eco-Friendly Packaging Parents Can Feel Good About

From the outer box to the inner wrappers, PLAYin CHOC have committed to creating a product that is fully recyclable, compostable, and plastic-free. The wrappers around each mini-bar are made from plant-based home compostable film. This makes it an ideal gift for eco-conscious families or those looking to reduce their plastic use. It’s always lovely to gift something you know won’t end up as landfill.

Each element of the packaging has been designed with sustainability in mind. Even the inks used are vegetable-based. With so many children’s products wrapped in layers of non-recyclable material, it’s refreshing to find a brand that genuinely walks the talk.

Perfectly Sized for Treat Time or Easter Hunts

Each mini-bar is 10g, which we found to be the ideal portion for children. It’s enough of a treat to feel indulgent, but not so big that you worry about overdoing the sugar. The Toy Choc boxes work wonderfully as part of an Easter egg hunt or placed at each child’s place at the Easter table. With multiple box sizes and prices starting from just £2.49, they’re budget-friendly too.

For families who celebrate Easter with gifts, chocolate hunts, or party bags, the PLAYin CHOC range is an easy win. You can mix and match depending on how many children you’re buying for, or how big of a treat you want to include. The versatility is another reason we think these make such fantastic gifts.

A Thoughtful Gift That Feels Special

What really makes PLAYin CHOC stand out is how considered every element is. From the flavour and quality of the chocolate to the design of the boxes and included toys, everything feels like a special experience. It’s not just another chocolate gift; it’s something children (and adults!) remember.

The gift sets, such as the PLAYin CHOC Easter Rabbits Gift Set, add a seasonal flair that fits beautifully with spring celebrations. Plus, they look gorgeous on display. They work equally well as an alternative to traditional Easter eggs, especially if you’re shopping for children with dietary restrictions or who simply prefer a toy and treat combination.

You can purchase directly from the PLAYin CHOC Website or find the Easter Rabbits Gift Set at Ethical Superstore.
