“This exciting combination of Darrell Lea and Lifesavers Fruit Tingles is a classic example of the great things that happen when two Australian icons collide,” said Marketing Director Tim Stanford.

“Both brands are nearly 100 years old and it’s great to see them finally come together and create a little Easter magic.”

The confectionery brand, which created Australia’s first Easter egg in 1940, has delighted shoppers with a range of chocolate eggs available in four flavors – including Rocklea Road, Black Liquorice, Raspberry Liquorice, and Milk Chocolate.

With every bite you are guaranteed a sip of crunch, munch or chew, all of which are interwoven with the brand’s classic creamy milk chocolate.

The bunnies also come in three classic flavors like traditional Rocklea Road, licorice, and simple chocolate. Each bunny offers a bite full of delicious ingredients of the highest quality

Darrell Lea is the only major supermarket chocolate brand that is 100 percent free from palm oil and only uses 100 percent sustainably produced cocoa.

“By not using palm oil, we are helping to protect the environment. We are not contributing to the destruction of the rainforests or the habitat of endangered animals such as orangutans, ”the company said.
