Supportive Copy


The Story behind Hotel Chocolat's extra thick Easter eggs
Back in the early days, Hotel Chocolat received advice from the ‘professionals’. Egg experts who advised them to make the chocolate shells as thin as possible to economise on chocolate… Very shrewd – if you’re an accountant that is! Naturally they completely ignored their advice then and they still appear to.

Their chocolate Easter Eggs are still over three times thicker than the average Easter egg and to read more about the story behind Hotel Chocolat Extra Thick Easter Eggs click here.
