Bettys is offering a 5.4kg Easter Egg for a whopping £395. Made at the café’s famous Harrogate home, the egg is 55cm tall and contains more than 5kils of chocolate.
Bettys says the handmade handmade Milk Chocolate Grande Easter Egg continues a tradition stretching back more than a century, when its founder Frederick Belmont designed eggs which were ornately embellished with hand-piped icing designs. RECOMMENDED READING: A spokesperson continued: “Containing over five kilos of Grand Cru Swiss chocolate made from prized Venezuelan criollo cocoa beans, the Grande Easter Egg is a true work of art, showcasing the highest skills of our chocolatiers and cake decorators. “Each Grande Easter Egg carries an array of delicate, individually crafted spring blooms and foliage including primroses, narcissi and pansies, with hand-piped stems as a final perfect touch.
” Bettys chocolatiers have also crafted a smaller version, with the exact same ingredients, skill and attention to detail, that costs £42.25. The second most expensive egg in the UK is believed to be by luxury chocolatiers Cocoba , costing £225 and weighing 4kg.
