The Easter Bunny is almost here!

Don’t forget to leave out your carrots.

We can’t believe how quickly Easter has come around! Wasn’t Christmas just yesterday? At Jefferies, we know everyone has different needs when it comes to food. That’s why we’ve been putting together a few of our favourite Easter goodies we think you might love to have during the traditional Easter Sunday feast, no matter who is eating! Also we couldn’t resist including a few fun activities around Melbourne for you and the family at the end of this blog.

Also, our store will be open 7:30am - 9:00pm ever day as normal throughout the Easter break! *Please note the Liquor Department will be closed on Good Friday

Our Favourite Easter Treats

Classic milk chocolate bunnies, hazelnut praline quail eggs, dark chocolate eggs, sprinkle egg pops and the five chocolate flavours gifting box are just to name a few. Whoever you’re buying for this Easter, the Koko Black range at Jefferies will make it easy.

The Carob Kitchen

Banjo the Carob Bear is one of our favourite little characters but since it’s bunny season, The Carob Bunny is here! Made with NO added sugar, the natural ingredient in these bunnies are perfect for sensitive tummies, or those who have a low sugar diet.

Just Sweets Altona

Traditionally, you would think gingerbread equals Christmas. Not for Just Sweet Altona! These adorable small gingerbread Easter eggs are the perfect bite sized biscuit for after Lunch or with a cup of tea. These are especially perfect for anyone who isn’t crazy about chocolate!

Yarra Valley Gourmet Foods

Mayonnaise Tartare +

Mayonnaise Garlic Aioli

For the fish-lovers out there, Easter is a fabulous opportunity to snap up some good seafood and indulge. We at Jefferies choose to pair our fish with Yarra Valley Mayonnaise Tartare & Mayonnaise Garlic Aioli. A spin on the classic, the creaminess of the tartare is the perfect pairing for fish.
