According to IGD data cited by World of Sweets, Spring and Easter remain key trading periods, with 77% of shoppers buying on promotion as chocolate prices continue to rise. This trend is pushing more consumers toward sugar confectionery as an affordable way to satisfy sweet cravings.
More than half of shoppers plan to celebrate Easter, with 75% purchasing products they don’t usually buy and 40% intending to gift. Social media trends such as TikTok’s Spring Gifting Baskets are also driving demand for fun, sharable treats that go beyond traditional chocolate formats.
Products are available now from Hancocks depots, online, or via World of Sweets reps.
