Costco shoppers go wild for ‘delicious’ Easter Mini Egg treat they ‘need asap’

COSTCO shoppers have been going wild for a Mini Egg treat that’s been spotted back on shelves.

Sweet-toothed fans spotted a giant chocolate nest cake topped with chocolate eggs and declared they “need” the treats “asap”.

The huge cake is priced at £11.99 and is topped with chocolate eggs and flakey chocolate pieces.

The cakes were first spotted on shelves in 2021 but some still haven’t got around to giving them a go.

Others have stated that they’re desperate to give the cakes another try.

A foodie shared an image of the treats on the Newfoodsuk Facebook page.

The post was met with 200 comments and almost 400 likes.

One commented: “That looks delicious.”

Another social media user said: “We need to go Costco asap.”

A third cried: “Looks amazing that!”

And a fourth added: “Omg I so want one.”

The cake is made from two layers of chocolate sponge with a chocolate filling.

It’s not clear whether the retailer is stocking the cake in all its stores, so you should get in touch with your nearest to find out.

You can do this by using Costco store locator tool on its website.

Remember, when buying anything like this, to shop around and see if you are getting the best deal.

Website trolley.co.uk lets you compare thousands of supermarket products and reveals where is cheapest to get each one.

Meanwhile, the Google Shopping tab is useful for a quick scan of the internet and how much separate retailers are selling an item for.

You need to be a member to shop at Costco and you have to meet certain requirements, we have all the details that you need to know below.

How do I become a Costco member?

To be eligible for a Costco membership, you need to have – or be retired from – a certain type of job.

Jobs that are included in the criteria are public sector workers such as NHS staff, police officers, teachers and local government workers.

Membership starts from £15 a year for online shopping only, but if you would rather shop at one of the warehouses then that rises to £33.60.

If you have a business there are also trade memberships available from £24.40 a year.

There are many perks to being a member as well as low prices, such as discounted fuel and tyre installation to mortgage services and pet insurance.

Prior to this year, members used to have to carry a physical card with them when shopping at one of the warehouses, but now it is more convenient.

The retailer has launched its first digital membership card meaning that shoppers can just scan their phones in stores.

How can I find out if I have a local Costco?

Costco is expanding in the UK and has plans to open 14 new warehouses by 2025.

The addition of these stores will take its total outlets to 44 but if you want to know if you already have one nearby there is an easy way to find out.

You can put your postcode into the retailer’s website and it will bring up where your nearest Costco warehouse is.

The same page also has a useful map showing you where all of its locations currently are.

There are many dotted around the UK with outlets in Edinburgh Manchester, Liverpool and London.

We have pulled together a full list of all of the current Costco locations below.

Meanwhile, Easter is just around the corner and many households will be planning to hop to their nearest supermarket to grab a Lindt Easter bunny.

But many supermarkets and retailers have tried their hands at recreating the Lindt bunny and now have their dupes.

We searched the shelves to find the closest matches on offer for the best price and value for money.

Plus we’ve also given Mini Eggs a go, we tried Cadbury mini egg dupes from major supermarkets – a bargain version was a huge disappointment.
