The Easter List

Every season I put together a list of some of the most interesting and delicious new things available in our stores. Easter is a pretty big deal for us, so perhaps this list is a little longer than usual, but if you haven't visited our stores or website lately, you might be a little surprised at some of the things on show! (If you are viewing this list through Blogger, click on the image link, and you'll be taken to the product on our website!)


DARK CHOCOLATE HALF EGG


This is the gift for lovers of dark chocolate. The solid mini eggs within are created from The Chocolate Box's fine dark chocolate and the cocoa solid content is 50% minimum!
GINGERBREAD BUNNIES

Here is non-chocolate alternative to Easter gift giving. It's a nice medium-large gingerbread bunny with a bit of icing for decoration. It's a great treat for children who have eaten a little too much chocolate on Easter Sunday. (We even think that it looks like an Australian Bilby - our indigenous Easter bunny!)
ENZA'S EASTER EGG BOX

Simplicity itself, I love this Easter Box. Who wouldn't be happy with this large Easter egg (available in Milk or Dark chocolate) and this cute tall soft plush bunny. Happy Easter indeed. There is also a variation of this Enza's box, with a bottle of wine, a smaller egg, and the long tall bunny.
EASTER CARD


"You're a Good Egg".
Dress up your Easter gift giving with this cute little Easter card, complete with a solid milk-chocolate solid egg half, revealed by the egg-shaped cutout.
ASSORTED EGGS


This is a lovely assortment of filled eggs from France. What is so lovely about it, are the mini egg fillings: a combination of Dark Truffle, enrobed in dark chocolate, and Hazelnut Praline filled mini eggs.
FRECKLE HALF EGG

I love this one. A delicious milk chocolate half-egg case filled with lovely large chocolate Freckles (marvellous milk chocolate disks covered in Hundreds and Thousands).

GOLDEN BUNNY

Every Easter needs a bunny, and this is my choice for the cutest. This golden foiled icon of Easter is a sweet milk chocolate delight.
190G EASTER EGG

Our Easter eggs are thicker than most, and this is the first time that we have included the 190g Milk or Dark chocolate foiled egg in our online Easter Collection. Created with fine couverture chocolate and approximately 14cms tall, these eggs are made from real chocolate. The dark chocolate variety can boast 50% cocoa solids minimum!


WOODEN EGGS

These highly collectable wooden eggs are delightful. In many countries wooden eggs are given as Christmas gifts, and their history even dates before Christ. We have a small selection of very beautiful eggs, and very simple eggs on our website.


PRALINE FILLED REAL EGGSHELLS


One of the more unusual and delightful products are these gianduja filled eggshells. They are actually made from real eggshells with the contents removed, and refilled with delightful gianduja (created with hazelnut) chocolate. We still have the plain colour eggs available on our website, and these can be customised further... Write the recipients name on with a fridge marker or metallic pen! Like actual shells, you need to crack them to get to the contents underneath.

The G20 is talking about it!

Finance! Most of the world's currencies are down but The Chocolate Box's chocolate coins are holding firm! (And they are also available Nut Free!)

We're in the fourth quarter of the financial year. Time enough to get the promotional edge on your financial competitors with a memorable (and tasty) promotion. Our chocolate coins are a fine milk chocolate, available in mesh bags of approx. 22 chocolates in variously sized mixed currencies, or clear pails.

Additional customisation options may be possible for larger corporate orders.
Please enquire.



If you require Australian currency, please enquire for availability.
