Updated for 2023! We are now 15 years into our annual Dairy-Free & Vegan Chocolate Easter Bunny Round-up, and have MORE THAN THIRTY chocolatiers to share. In addition to dairy-free chocolate bunnies, several of them craft chocolate eggs, chicks, and truffles too! And these days we get to pick between dark, semi-sweet, “milk,” and white chocolate options. Aren’t we spoiled? Vegans, gluten-free / casein-free dieters, lactose intolerant consumers, and even those with multiple food allergies and gluten-free needs can literally choose from dozens of cute and tasty Easter chocolate options. But you might want to hop on over to place your order now. I’m guessing that many of these chocolatiers will sell out before the holiday arrives.
The BIG Dairy-Free Chocolate Easter Bunny & More Round-Up
The following guide includes the vegan and dairy-free chocolate bunnies and Easter treats available in North America (U.S. and many in Canada). For options elsewhere, see our Australia, Europe & New Zealand Dairy-Free Easter Chocolate Round-Up.
Allergen Notes: All items listed below were dairy-free by ingredients at the time of our review, but ingredients are subject to change at any time. We have noted manufacturers that we know process milk chocolate in the same facility with an asterisk (*). But all products are at some degree of risk for allergen cross contamination. If you are concerned about potential cross contamination of an allergen, always contact the company to discuss their ingredient sourcing and allergen protocols before purchasing. Only you can decide what is safe for your needs.
Gluten Note: Most of the following are gluten-free by ingredients, but contact the company if potential cross contamination in production is a concern for you. Some of these chocolatiers do handle gluten in their facility.

Purdy’s Vegan Easter Eggs and Dark Chocolate Bunnies
This Canadian chocolatier ships to the U.S. and many other countries worldwide. Their Easter selection includes vegan dark and “milk” chocolate eggs. They’re also making several dark chocolate Easter bunnies, which are dairy-free by ingredients. But keep in mind that they don’t have separate vegan molds for the bunnies, so those are at higher risk for potential cross contamination with milk.

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.

Thank-you for this list. I can’t have any dairy at all, and my daughter has a peanut/tree nut allergy. I can usually find chocolate for her, but this year I was feeling a little sad about not having a bunny of my own. Funny I know, considering it’s supposed to be about the kids. But now I have a dairy free, peanut/tree nut free (because I know she’ll want a taste of mine) bunny on the way. I’m so excited 🙂
That’s so great! I hope you absolutely love the chocolate!
We produce solid chocolate Easter Rabbits that are FREE OF all common allergens, including: soy, tree nuts, peanuts, dairy, casein, eggs, wheat, gluten. THEY ARE MADE IN A DEDICATED AREA, and there is NO CROSS-CONTAMINATION! They cost only $5.99/each. ALL of our products are free of soy, peanuts and tree nuts, and much of our chocolate and candy is DAIRY-FREE. We are in our 11th year in business, and are growing!

Hi,
Great article, however no mention of other countries such as Australia. Do these companies deliver overseas ? I was also wondering if you had information regarding the possibility of purchasing ‘sugar free/gluten free etc type Easter bunny products within Australia ?
Cheers
I believe some of the UK brands are available in Australia. You also have Sweet William there, and they have Easter chocolates: http://www.sweetwilliam.com.au/
Thank you for this list. I have ordered from Amanda’s Own and Allison’s Gourmet in the past. Both places have yummy chocolate that my daughter loves. I am going to try one of the others this year because they offer some candy that she has not been able to try because she of a dairy allergy. Thank you so much for your research and for posting this!
Happy that I can help Beth!
Thank you so much for posting these! I thought my 3 yr. old daughter would have to skip a chocolate bunny this year… Really appreciate the heads up on all these dairy and/or egg free options!
You are welcome – Happy Easter to you and your little girl!
Thank you for posting this list. I barely found out that my five year old is highly allegric to dairy and mildly to soy. I have been struggling trying to come up with his Easter treats. Since most stores do not carry dairy free chocolate.
Oh no! Not an easy transition, but I hope you are able to order some of the great dairy-free, soy-free chocolates on this list – the options are growing!

I happened to stumble onto your website and was very excited. My son also has a dairy intolerance. He is extremely picky and with Easter around the counter I was stumped. I am glad to see all these options. I do know that Divvies is supposed to be sold in Wegmans and in Wholefood. I did not see any in Wegmans so I will try Wholefoods. He will have to try the chocolate first. If get a thumbs up I will order from the websites you provided. But wanted to thank you immensely and am going to buy your book for him! Wonder though I have lots of allergies and wanted to know if you have come across any thing . I am dairy, soy, corn, gluten and sugar intolerant, I know that is a tall order but if on the off chance I would appreciate it. Again thanks do much for your website and book!!!

Thanks for publishing this list! It is the second year in a row that I will be using it.
I was wondering what type of easter cansdy I can eat as I am allergic to chocolate, all dairy and nuts
See this post: http://www.godairyfree.org/news/easter-treats-food-allergy-candy
Pingback: Easter Treats: All Natural, Allergy-Friendly and Vegan Candy
Don’t forget Indie Candy! Everything we make is not only dairy free, but big 8 allergen free and all natural too.
Due to multiple food allergies in our household, I generally end up making homemade Easter confections and use molds and lollipop sticks to make them more creative. So I was pretty excited to see this list! However, I found only one of the above that fit our requirements, Amanda’s Own. I had high hopes for the Sweet Earth chocolates but their website doesn’t include any list of ingredients. In fact, though the article here claims they are soy free, I have a hunch that they are soy LECITHIN free, not soy free. Also there were several listed that used artificial food colorings and flavorings, which I found to be a big disappointment. We have a son on the spectrum and we are gluten, casein, corn and soy free. As well as artificial anything of course!
This is a great article Alisa! My 2.5 year old son is highly allergic to milk and we have to carry an epi pen wherever we go. As he gets older, we struggle to find ways to make him feel normal in social settings – i.e. taking his own little dairy-free cakes to birthday parties, frequenting ice cream shops that have dairy free options etc.
And this year I have been agonizing over what to do about Easter. Since I moved to the U.S. I have tried to hold on to some English traditions. As such my eldest has enjoyed many Easter egg hunts with the hollow boxed Easter Eggs from England.
But now that my little one is old enough to want to participate, I had been fretting about what to do this year – especially as my usual British produce supplier only carries milk chocolate eggs. I will be going to each of the sites you have listed to see if they will ship to the U.S. Fingers crossed!
Michelle,
So glad you like the listing! These are mostly U.S. suppliers, so you should find tons of options!
