Updated for 2020! We’re now 12 years into our annual Dairy-Free and Vegan Chocolate Easter Bunny Round-up! This list might look a little shorter this year, because not all vegan chocolatiers have their Easter collections out yet. I know some of you want to shop early (before they run out!), so we’re updating the list now, and will continue adding to it as new options come out. Our round-up now includes TWENTY chocolatiers in North America (most in the U.S., but several available in Canada). For options elsewhere, see our Australia, Europe & New Zealand Dairy-Free Easter Chocolate Round-Up.

Of course, there is more to Easter than chocolate bunnies … there are chocolate eggs, chicks, and truffles too! Oh, and these days we get to pick between dark, semi-sweet, “milk,” and white chocolate options. Aren’t we spoiled? Now vegans, gluten-free / casein-free dieters, lactose intolerant consumers, and even those with multiple food allergies and gluten-free needs can literally take their pick! But you might want to hop on over to place your order now. I’m guessing that many of these chocolatiers will sell out well before the holiday arrives.

The BIG Dairy-Free Chocolate Easter Bunny & More Round-Up

If your special diet needs are particular, please read this article carefully and inquire with the manufacturer prior to purchasing. I have included notes on what “free-from” needs the chocolatiers cater to (including soy-free and nut-free!), and if we’ve read that they use shared equipment in production. However, you should always double check with the manufacturer before purchasing or consuming any food whenever there is a dietary concern. Now onto the vegan and dairy-free chocolate bunnies and eggs!

Amanda’s Own Easter and Passover Chocolates

The chocolate bunny population is exploding at Amanda’s Own this year! They now have baby bunnies, bashful bunnies, momma bunnies, long-eared bunnies, bunny friends, and more. They also have chocolate eggs and other Easter and springtime shapes. Created specifically for their child with multiple food allergies, Amanda’s Own claims to be the “home of great tasting chocolate that is completely dairy-free, tree nut-free, peanut-free, egg-free and gluten-free!” Amanda’s Own is known for kid-friendly chocolate, so it is no surprise that they are offering up quite a sweet little line of Easter chocolates.

No Whey! White & “Milk” Chocolate Easter Bunnies

This company has won my taste buds over. They offer “milk” chocolate, white chocolate, and semi-sweet Easter Bunnies in addition to Easter egg truffles, creme eggs, and an assortment of other fun white, milkless, and dark chocolate treats. Every year, you can expect the head chocolatier, Yochy, will make something new. And their manufacturing facility is top allergen-free, which means they are dairy-free, gluten-free, egg-free, nut-free and now soy-free!

Ethereal Confections Chocolate Bunnies & Bark

But, you can buy their delicious confections from anywhere in the U.S. For richness, they use coconut milk and coconut oil, rather than soy, and they offer a delightful dairy-free Easter chocolate range, including solid chocolate bunnies, dairy-free filled Easter eggs, jelly bean bark, bunny bark, and chocolate nests.

Sjaak’s Organic Fair Trade Vegan Dark Chocolate Bunny

Say that ten times fast! But seriously, beyond the fact that these treats obviously meet all possible eco-friendly and socially aware standards, these dairy-free chocolate Easter bunnies win the cuteness award! The only downside is that you may not be able to take a bite after looking into his adorable chocolaty eyes. Luckily, there are always the vegan “melk” chocolate eggs for a back-up, which you can buy by the tub should you have a little army to please.

Lake Champlain Classic Dark Chocolate Easter Bunny

Since the Mr. Goodtime Bunny is milk chocolate, I suppose we will have to be content with the regal Classic Dark Bunny, which is boasted as vegan and gluten-free. Well, I guess he is pretty handsome. For those who prefer “cute” to handsome, Lake Champlain also offers dark chocolate placesetting bunnies and organic dark chocolate hopp’n bunnies to share with all Easter guests.

Rescue Chocolate gives you a good excuse to enjoy more chocolate at Easter with their vegan chocolate cream-filled eggs (aptly named, “The Good Egg”). 100% of the net profits from your Rescue Chocolate purchase are donated to animal rescue organizations around the country.

Obsessive Confection Disorder Vegan “Cadbury” Eggs

Though they haven’t ventured into the bunny fields just yet, I would be remiss not to mention the Sweet Dream Eggs from this all-vegan chocolatier. These have sweet “egg” fillings with the sugary whites and yolks reminiscent of Cadbury Cream Eggs, but without dairy. They also offer Rhesus Peanut Butter Eggs. And this year, 25% of the peanut butter egg sales will benefit primate sanctuaries – they buy them snacks and toys and have them sent. The chocolate eggs will be available from mid-March through the end of April. It appears that this chocolatier does shun soy, but I haven’t been able to gather any allergen-specific information from them just yet.

Mama Ganache Vegan Easter Bunnies

Unlike many other brands, this chocolatier makes vegan chocolate that is also free of soy lecithin. Yes, you heard me right, their vegan Easter bunnies and eggs are dairy-free AND soy-free. This is another one of those great Fair Trade and Organic certified companies, so don’t hesitate to support them. Oh yes, and the bunnies! They make vegan dark chocolate versions for most of their bunnies, including the solid chocolate bunnies, bunny and nest, big bunny, and VERY big bunny (shown below).

Lindt Dark Chocolate Easter Bunnies

This is one of those “accidentally vegan” treats. I really don’t think the people at Lindt had non-dairy as their goal, especially since many of their dark chocolate bars do contain milk. However, the Lindt Dark Chocolate Gold Bunnies that we spotted in the U.S. AND Canada, were made without dairy ingredients. Nonetheless, they do contain soy lecithin and artificial flavor (since when is chocolate not good enough on its own?), and may be at risk for cross-contamination with dairy in production.

Lagusta’s Luscious Vegan Chocolate Bunnies & Cream Eggs

They are not a dairy-free facility, but make a point to pour non-dairy chocolate bunnies.
