But shoppers hunting for them this year have been left disappointed after they were withdrawn without warning.
It’s not clear why they’ve gone, but maker Mars recommended fans try Galaxy’s Creamy Truffle mini eggs instead.
Disappointed customers mourned their absence, with one asking Mars on X, formerly known as Twitter: “@GalaxyChocolate are your enchanted eggs discontinued? Missing my Easter galaxy fix.”
Another said: “Not sure if they're gone for good but it's not good they're gone."

“One of the creamiest egg selections ever and the portion size was always good."

The chocolate treat has been branded 'amazing' and moreish by fans.
A Mars Wrigley UK spokesperson told The Sun: "We can confirm that for the moment we have discontinued our Galaxy Enchanted eggs, but for those Galaxy fans missing the treat you can find our Galaxy Creamy Truffle Mini Eggs in Milk chocolate or Hazelnut available."
How to find the best bargains at the supermarket
Galaxy Creamy Truffle Mini Eggs are little milk Galaxy chocolates filled with a creamy truffle centre.
They are bigger than Galaxy Enchanted Eggs and won't have caramel pieces but you can get a hazelnut-flavoured version.
You can nab a 74g in Tesco or Morrisons for £1.35.
But it looks like Waitrose has them the cheapest for £1.25, they're sold out at the moment but keep an eye out to see if they come back in stock.
It’s not the only Easter disappointment this year.
Mars confessed last week the iconic Bounty dark chocolate bar would not be included in its lineup this year.
Many fans are still mourning the loss of another Mars treat, the discontinued Milky Way Crispy Rolls.
Mars confirmed the chocolate bar was discontinued back in 2022, but they have been spotted on shop shelves as recently as this month.
Last week we revealed how angry Cadbury fans have just realised that Dairy Milk Egg 'n' Spoon cartons have been discontinued.
The firm said the move reflected "changing tastebuds".
