Aldi has announced that the new Chief Easter Egg Tasting Officer is Aneurin Moorthy from Dublin Ireland, and he has hopped right into his new role.

The Mater Hospital Dublin anaesthetist and dedicated follower of all things chocolate was nominated by his wife Ruth, who is a practising nurse at the same hospital. Aneurin has won a clutch of free chocolate Easter eggs and an Aldi gift card valued at €500 in exchange for applying his tasting skills on the 2021 Easter Egg range.

“As long as I have known Aneurin he has been infatuated with chocolate and is a complete chocoholic,” said Ruth on nominating her husband. “We have worked really hard over the last year due to the pandemic whilst also having to cancel our honeymoon and getting no chance to celebrate our marriage. We really have had very little to keep us going and our dog and chocolate have been our only sanity.”

Aneurin’s favourite selections included Roisin’s Irish Honeycomb Easter Egg; Moser Roth Ripple Egg in Belgian Milk Chocolate and Salted Caramel, and Belgian White Chocolate and Forest Fruits; Moser Roth Chocolate Lovers Dark Chocolate Lovers Duo Egg and Aine’s Premium Dark Chocolate Easter Egg.
