Come with us as we explore some of the most decadent and luxurious Easter eggs on the market, from handcrafted Belgian chocolate eggs to exquisite chocolate filled creations. Whether you’re looking for something special to gift a loved one or just want to treat yourself, we’ve got you covered.
Laduree Large Chocolate Easter Egg
This Easter Ladurée has unveiled a magnificent collection of chocolate eggs decorated with their iconic laurel wreath, reimagined with seasonal flowers like daffodils and forget-me-nots. These eggs come in two sizes, Small (110g) and Large (250g), and are available in milk, white, and dark chocolate. Packaged in stunning floral boxes, they make a perfect special gift this Easter.
Fortnum & Mason Hand-Decorated Milk Chocolate Easter Egg
If you’re seeking something completely unique, opt for this individually hand-decorated egg – each of the outer artworks are one of a kind, while the shell itself comes from F&M’s antique moulds. Tercentenary-blend milk chocolate is tempered to create a glossy finish, while handmade chocolate chunks are found within.
Charbonnel Et Walker
This heritage brand – chocolatier to HM the Queen no less – was formed in 1875. It operates from a salubrious Bond Street address, which has seen the custom of patrons including Noel Coward, Wallis Simpson and Sir John Gielgud. The delicate milky egg has a hinged opening, while the lavishly decorated tube contains an ingenious secret compartment filled with fine truffles. The price tag reflects this egg’s supreme quality.
Fortnum & Mason Handmade Milk & Dark Chocolate Easter Egg
Shaped in Fortnum & Mason’s antique metal moulds, this egg has a vintage vibe. It’s perfect for those who enjoy the contrast of both milk and dark and contains an array of handmade filled chocolates. This egg is simple, traditional and very classy, nestled in a teal and gold F&M branded gift box.
Extra Thick Champagne Easter Egg
While many of the luxe eggs on our list are extra fine, this one from Hotel Chocolat bucks the trend. The super-chunky shell comes in two halves – one 40% milk chocolate, the other a blend of strawberry flavoured white and milk chocolate. It may take an extra tap to break open the thick wall of this egg, but once you do, you’ll be rewarded with pink and white Mercier champagne and ganache truffles.
Claridge’s Milk Chocolate Easter Egg
Open a muted teal presentation box to reveal a striking monochrome and chevron foil-wrapped egg, finished with a thick black satin bow. Hand made using Valrhona milk chocolate, the limited edition item is new for 2021 and filled with moreish salted caramel gull’s eggs.
Venchi – White Chocolate & Salted Nuts Easter Egg
Founded in the 1800s, Venchi’s artistry has become internationally renowned. Sweet yet salty, smooth yet crunchy, this Italian egg’s shell melds salted caramel with white chocolate, Piedmont Hazelnuts, almonds and pistachios. The result is a voluptuously thick and layered taste sensation that adds a savoury element to your candied Easter decadence.
