Large white chocolate egg?

flogen

Anyone know where I could find a large (the bigger the better) white chocolate Easter egg?

The best I've found so far is a Bulters one with truffles - but it's only a medium-sized one. Other than that you're looking at small Milkybar ones etc

It seems as though it's relatively easy to find some ridiculously sized milk chocolate eggs but white chocolate ones stop at a fairly average size

Green and blacks usually do one

Hotel Chocolat usually do Ostrich (Size) Easter Eggs about £70 and they deliver no hassle to here or there's one in Belfast.

If you can Green and Black white chocolate is fab
If you are going to be in Cork soon there an amazing chocolate stall who may able help. Maybe try m&s tesco.

Amazon is often a.good source online.

Wow - their stuff looks amazing... don't see a white chocolate Ostrich egg on their site but will see if there's any available elsewhere.

No idea but you can't go too far wrong with Belgian I guess?
Maybe you could find a review - it was recommended in Hello or OK or one of those anyway.

Have you tried "the chocolate garden of Ireland" - I'd say they have more products than on the website so you could possibly email them.

Had a look at the website there too can't see a white one sorry, was sure they did it before, white is my favourite too.

The Lindt Strawberries and Cream is a white egg with the sweets being strawberry and cream,

The Lindt big eggs are substantial and tis nice chocolate.

Also try Debenhams they usually big unusual eggs

One last one Cocoa Atelier on Drury Street have lovely eggs, they only have a Facebook but i don't see the eggs up yet. Had one from here last year, twas a medium size white and the chocolate was divine. Hard to get your hands on one of them. My friend queued for mine last year. Handmade and unique.

Not familiar with them - will have a look, thanks.

Not at all - tempted to go with the milk one anyway, looks unreal.

I know that place on Drury St - hadn't realised they did eggs (just remember seeing on the macarons when I stuck my head in the shop) but will give them a look. (Though tbh I'd prefer if it was still the Meet and Meat!)

Cocoa Atelier is the one beside the back entrance to George's Street Arcade, Laduree is the one in where Meet and Meat is, haven't seen eggs there.

Yep, I got my marmite-loving husband a bar of marmite chocolate a few years back for christmas. The idea's been around for a while, but I still wouldn't try it.








Neither did he, btw.

Tesco have a lot more eggs in now, mine anyway. They had a large enough Lir white chocolate egg. It is not showing online, think it was 350g and maybe
15euro

EDIT: found a pic, it is 360g and comes with non white chocolate

novel idea, but I would rather a giant egg, the chunks on that thing are massive, I don't like huge toblerones for the same reason. Eggs are more like those really thin diary milks, they have more surface area so melt in the mouth better.

Yeah one of the things I like about easter eggs is the thin chocolate that melts in your mouth. That being said the choc caramel solid egg looks amazing!

Thanks for that - might have another look in my local one.

The solid white one is sold out on Amazon so probably a non-runner at this stage anyway.

I do see that Skellig do a solid one too (1kg!!!) but no white chocolate option.

I'm a bit torn on the idea myself, to be honest, because the thin chocolate of a normal egg is really nice - but the Skellig ones in particular look really nice too!
