    Tasting notes

    Nougatine, hazelnut praline

    The tradition of Easter eggs

    The humble egg holds so much symbolism across various cultures around the world, often representing life, fertility, and transformation - like the seasonal transition from winter to spring. We also know that it was forbidden to eat them during the run-up to the Easter celebrations. Saved for Easter day, they could then be painted and gifted to little ones, following tradition.

    Overnight in Alsace, before the sun rises on Easter morning, one of the shier inhabitants of the Alsace Grand Ried gets busy hiding eggs around local gardens: "Osterhase" Easter Bunny.

    Little eggs with a satisfyingly crisp shell…

    The fine nougatine shell of these little Easter eggs is made using caramel sugar and tiny pieces of almond. It's then expertly filled by our chocolatiers with a melt-in-the-mouth hazelnut praline. Crisp yet meltingly soft all at once, these little eggs are so indulgent that it's near impossible to resist

    Our serving tips

    A special treat, these chocolate delights have a crisp nougatine shell and melt-in-the-mouth praline centre, and go wonderfully with the fresh, light notes of an Oolong tea or a fruity or floral infusion.
