Monthly Competition Tuesday 7th April 2026

7th April 2026

Hello everyone and welcome to this month’s Happy Puzzle competition!

For those of you who are new to this, for 14 weeks over lockdown we had an absolute blast creating weekly puzzles which were being received by well over 50,000 people each week. We had thousands of entries and each week a winner was drawn at random from the correct entries. As the weeks passed by, the puzzles were getting more and more ambitious and in the end, Gavin had to concede that he did not have the time to produce a new one every week. So we decided to make it a monthly thing, with the puzzle coming out at 7pm on the first Tuesday of each month.

Here we go then!

Here is the 84th PUZZLE and there is a £25 Happy Puzzle voucher up for grabs.

E is for Easter / Chocolate

Easter is here and for many, Easter means chocolate eggs. I have already brought myself more than one. There were so many to choose from, and that inspired this months competition.

Below are a series of clues. You need to work out which chocolate bar each of those clues represents. At the end, there is a word search.

For the first part, there are 10 chocolate bars, each depicted by emoji images. Your job is to work out which chocolate bar (past or present) each image represents.

Now here are 10 chocolate anagrams. Can you work them all out?

11) copit

12) buy not

13) is paw

14) noil

15) a milk

16) free horror rec

17) off ref

18) rehs yhe

19) bone or tel

20) kefla

Now, here are five chocolate bars that have all changed names over the last few decades. These are the names they used to be know as, but can you get their current names?

21) Marathon

22) Dime

23) Peanut Boost

24) Lokum

25) Raider

Finally, here is a link to a Word Search. You will need it to answer the competition.April 2026 Competition

To win the £25 Happy Puzzle voucher, once you have worked out all the chocolate bars from the 25 clues above, you need to work out which ONE is not shown in the word search.

Please send your answer to me at josh@happypuzzle.co.uk, ensuring that you put APRIL 2026 PUZZLE in the subject line.

The competition closes at 23.59 on Thursday 30th April 2026. Both the answers and the winner will then be drawn at random and revealed in next month’s puzzle on Tuesday 5th May 2026! My decision will be final!
