my reading of it is that its ok.

You may only bring in or send to the EU other animal products, such as honey, live oysters, live mussels and snails for example, provided that:
• they come from other countries (other than the Faeroe Islands, Greenland, or Iceland) and their combined weight does not exceed 2 kg per person.

NZ is on the list of ok third countries.
