edible Easter Eggs

[magnolia]

I'm looking for the most outrageous edible Easter Eggs I can find in central London. Something that has both super high quality ingredients *and* looks fantastic. Thoughts?

Ooops, I should have specified - aside from l'AdC...the people for whom I'm getting these are devotees so they'll have seen this year's model, I wanted to surprise them with something new. But good thinking, Batman.

ca marche?

[magnolia]

It might marche, I always forget about them. Will stop by. There's also a wacky Japanese patisserie near LMdC which might have something crazy...

would rococo or Pierre Marcolini work - or were you looking for something more OTT?

[magnolia]

Rococo might do it, I'm stopping by on Sunday...

Choccywoccydoodah do some fun things and the chocolate is high quality (can't remember the make now, sorry) They are more known for cakes but looks like they are doing some interesting stuff for Easter.

The chocolate shop in Liberty had some nice stuff. Mainly Rococco but there were a few other bits and bobs dotted around. They have some amusing choclate cigarettes with a health warning sticker on the side that says "Eating sweets when pregnant will make you fatter". I got some for Moby.

Thanks Suzi - I particularly like the chocolate shoes - not very Pasqual but I might be willing to make an exception...

If you want to be absolutely sure of surprising your friends with something they won't have seen try Chouchoute:

This is an independent shop run by a young couple in Birmingham. All the chocolates are handmade by them and i'm sure they would mail order.

Just to add to my post above, i've just looked at their site and discovered that they now also buy in chocolates from French and Belgian artisans but i'm sure the quality is just as good!
