Nestle Aero Peppermint Mini Eggs - 70g

Aero is the bubbly one. Every British sweet counter has it, and the peppermint version has the sort of following plain chocolate can only dream about. Come spring, it goes egg-shaped and lands next to the hollow eggs and the bags of minis that take over the seasonal aisle.

Here in Canada, Easter rolls round and you want the bag that sat on the kitchen table back home, the one you went back to while pretending you were only tidying the wrappers. That is usually when the searching starts.

The 70g bag is a handy size: enough for a bowl on the coffee table, a scatter across an egg hunt, or a handful tucked into an Easter basket. Keep it in a cool, dry cupboard away from the radiator and the bubbles stay as they should.

Nestlé makes plenty of other British favourites, and people often pick these up alongside a plain Aero bar or a proper big Easter egg for whoever insists they do not like mint. They will be in the mint ones by teatime.
