Easter Food & Drink: Top Picks From Waitrose
Waitrose always delivers on the seasonal goodies, and its 2024 Easter range does not disappoint.
Hot Cross Buns
Hot cross buns are a must around this time of year, and Waitrose has an impressive array of flavours, from spiced apple to white chocolate and lemon (plus classic for the traditionalists). New for 2024 are the No.1 Golden Hot Cross Buns, made with a sourdough starter and flavoured with sultanas and tangy Seville orange marmalade; plus the No. 1 Belgian Chocolate Hot Cross Buns, which are studded with dark Belgian chocolate.
The Easter Roast
Cooking for the family this Easter Sunday? Waitrose has a wide range of British, higher welfare roasting joints. Choose from a selection of different lamb joints including shoulders, shanks and legs, alongside cuts of beef, chicken, gammon, pork and more. Better still, you can get 25 percent off selected roasting joints, such as this No.1 Free Range Corn Fed Whole Chicken.
Enjoy alongside sides including Waitrose Red Cabbage and Waitrose 6 Mini Yorkshire Puddings, plus accompaniments like Waitrose English Mint Sauce and Essential Bramley Apple Sauce.
Waitrose also has a wide selection of responsibly sourced fish for Good Friday, including smoked salmon, fillets and ready-to-cook dishes.
Desserts
Just because there’s chocolate everywhere on Easter doesn’t mean we should forget about all the delicious seasonal desserts. You’ll find a whole host of themed Easter treats in Waitrose’s bakery. Why not treat your guests to a Simnel Cake, a lightly spiced cake topped with marzipan balls, or these cute Mini Easter Cupcakes, golden fairy cakes with sugar decorations.
Easter Eggs
What would Easter be without an egg or two (or three, or four)? As always, Waitrose has a tasty selection of chocolate eggs on offer, from fun child-friendly creations to decadent chocolate treats.
Discover chocolate Easter eggs in a delicious array of sizes and flavours. Choose from milk, dark, white, fruity, luxury vegan and fun Easter eggs for the kids to get delivered to your door. We’ve also got our eyes on the No.1 Hidden Truffles Dark Chocolate Easter Egg, a dark chocolate egg with a box of truffles hidden inside. Little ones, meanwhile, will love the Waitrose Sunny Side Sam Easter Egg.
Wine
Complete your Easter lunch with a few bottles of good-quality wine: Waitrose has an extensive collection spanning high-quality white, red, rose and champagne. A great choice this spring is one of the new mixed cases, which offer a curated selection of specially selected bottles suited to different occasions and tastes – from laid-back evenings in to hard-to-beat classics. This Easter, you can save up to £43 on these cases.
