Hide AdMade from 1.3kg of high quality Grand Cru Swiss dark chocolate, Bettys like to think of it as the connoisseur’s Easter egg.
Decorated with hand-piped Royal icing roses, it stands an impressive 28cm high and weighs a formidable 1.3kg.
A Bettys spokesperson said: ”Creating the handcrafted Easter eggs at Bettys calls upon our artisan chocolatiers’ utmost skills but it’s our finest quality Grand Cru chocolate that ensures each egg tastes every bit as spectacular as it looks.”
There is one added twist to Bettys’ latest creation, one which anyone who was entranced by ships in a bottle as a child will recognise.
