I swung by Roast + Conch last night for the press launch of Hotel Chocolat’s collection of chocolates for Easter 2013. This year’s yield is an especially delicious assortment that’s attractively presented with a bit a quirk. Hand tied ribbon hat boxes, a dapper Beau Bunny illustration by Neal Murren adorning most packaging, prettily coloured pralines and bonbons all help to ensure delight whether the chocolates are a treat for yourself or a gift for someone special.
Items range in price from £1.95 for a Bunny Lick or Choc Cross Bun; £5 for Tiddly Chicks; and £6.50 for Champagne Egglets on the low end to £27 for an Extra Thick Egg; £40 for a box filled with Oodles of Eggs; and £70 for an impressively outsized Ostrich Easter Egg. There are plenty of options in between those selections at pretty much every price point as well.
I’ve been nibbling my way through the “Egglet Collection” box (£25) since the event. My fave so far has been without doubt the pecan praline, but every taste has been a luscious winner.
