RECIPE: Treat yourself to gluten free Easter eggs

With Easter comes lots of treats including chocolates, hot cross buns, marshmallows – actually, anything that is egg or bunny shaped.

But some of us do not or cannot eat certain products containing milk or gluten or have food allergies, therefore cannot enjoy Easter the way everyone does.

But thanks to some inventive bloggers and chefs, gluten free and dairy free Easter treats were created.
