Firefly Tonics gives us extremely delicious drinks which include natural energising ingredients. I have had the pleasure of tasting a few of these splendid tonics, and as yet, I have not been disappointed. Firefly says:-
“We work with herbal experts to find natural formulas that work. We say NO to sugar and artificial ingredients. Fundamental. And the result: Firefly Tonics. Healthy drinks that give you a natural lift.”
Now, Firefly Tonics is launching a new flavour – Step-Up. This drink has the sole aim of raising £30,000 for the Oxford Children’s Hospital. The drinks are made using 100% natural Tangerine and Lime ingredients are just fruit juice and added botanicals such as Green Tea and Kola Nut, making Step-Up a truly guilt free drink. And I must say, it tastes a real treat!

The Oxford Children’s Hospital has made a huge impact on the family of Firefly Tonics founder Marcus Waley-Cohen as they took care of his younger brother for much of his life as he battled bone cancer. The image depicted on the bottle is a representation of Michael Craig Martin’s ‘Kids’ which can be seen filling the five storey Atrium of the Hospital. It has been proven that children who are happy during their hospital stay, are calmer, more relaxed, and therefore get better quicker!

Chocolate at Easter time is something that we find extremely hard to resist. I love the very additive brown delight, and find it hard to say no too! But, at Easter, having an excuse to eat chocolate is pure heaven. So, why not treat yourself and others with the pleasure of Thornton’s! With a great selection of Easter goodies and treats available, there is something for everyone to enjoy.
Get the best of both worlds with a Thornton’s Chocolate Block Egg (£9.99). Containing a beautiful array of a creamy milk chocolate egg and three of Thorntons best-selling Chocolate Blocks you won’t be disappointed. With the choice of milk and white Belgian chocolate and dark French chocolate, you’ll want to keep this one all to yourself. I know I do!

I know how much children love to take part in an egg hunt at Easter time. So, with this best-selling Easter Egg Hunt Kit (£6.50), the whole family can indulge in the fun.
It contains eight hollow milk chocolate eggs, foiled mini milk chocolate eggs and five clues to help the children along; this will entertain and delight kids and grown-ups alike! I love it!

With many other eggs available, Thorntons could just well be your one stop shop for Easter. You can even go the extra mile this year with a personal message iced onto your favourite egg – making a great personalised gift. From small treats like the Chirpy Chick Lollipop (£0.69), to the Jelly Bean Carrot bag (£1.49) are more than ideal for small children. And for the grown-ups who love chocolate the Continental Easter Egg (£9.99) and Chocolate Jubilee Egg (£24.99) would be more than appreciated.
