Toblerone Truffles Egg - 286g

Easter in Britain runs on boxed eggs. From early spring the supermarket aisles fill up with them, every chocolate brand puts one out, and by Easter Sunday the kitchen table looks like a small chocolate warehouse.

Here, people go looking for the egg they actually remember: the familiar box, the name they grew up with, the one that got opened on the sofa while the roast was in. Being able to buy it in Canada means Easter morning looks the way it should.

This is a proper 286g egg in its box, heavy enough to share and tempting enough not to. Keep it somewhere cool and dry, away from the radiator and the sunny windowsill, until the moment comes. Then crack it, break it up, and watch how quickly the truffles disappear.

It sits happily alongside a classic triangular Toblerone bar, and next to a few other British eggs it makes the start of a decent egg hunt. Grown-ups have been known to hunt hardest.
