Happy Easter to everyone! Who’s in the mood for some sweets? Easter is such a divine time to celebrate with your family, and for us, it’s a big deal as we look upon it as a religious holiday. But one of our traditions is to hold an Easter party or event at our home where we prepare creative easter eggs for an easter egg hunt for the kids. It’s always been a huge smash (pun intended) at our home, and makes for awesome memories.
Chocolate in itself is a big weakness of mine, so anything made of this yummy concoction will get my attention. As mentioned, we’re having our traditional family get together today, but I’m squeezing in this photo gallery here to whet your appetite for chocolate easter eggs. Found these on AOL UK (an older post, but the eggs look so delicious!). They look sumptuous, unique and perfect for chocolate lovers who have everything. Nice if you’ve got the money and the sugar cravings!

Wow, I’m sitting here with a stomach ache from too much candy. I think this sent me over the edge. I’ll take the pleasure and pain egg. Looks like a challenge!
I definitely agree with that favorite of yours. The Russian style egg looks nice as well but your top pick just looks a little better 😉
