The research also reveals the nation’s sweet tooth with a dramatic surge in chocolate egg and hot cross bun sales in the run up to Easter. Premium own label ranges also performed well with shoppers spending an additional €18.7m on these lines year-on-year, and growth of 12.9 per cent when compared to this time last year.
