When I spotted that Donna Wilson (of the quirky knitted toys and homewares) has teamed up with ‘once bitten, truly smitten’ chocolatiers Rococo to create these hand-painted chocolate eggs, I knew that my Easter egg hunt was over. Her signature creatures feature alongside more typical Easter bunnies, chicks and lambs and all come beautifully packaged in Rococo boxes.
My favourite is the ‘Food Chain’ Russian doll style egg above. With typical Donna Wilson humour, there are 3 Rococo ganaches inside the carrot, which is inside the rabbit, which is inside the fox.
The Owl and the Pussycat feature on Wilson’s round cushions, sailing away in their beautiful boat.
Let me know which design is your favourite!

Very Cute!
How lovely are these hand painted eggs! They remind me of my childhood where egg painting was an essential part of Easter Sunday morning.
You should paint some eggs again this Easter Toni – it’s a great tradition!
Oh my word-how gorgeous are these. Toni-me too-we used to always paint the eggs with Mum-infact I’m going to get the kids to do the same this weekend-some traditions mustn’t die out! Thanks for great post Ursula x
Have fun painting eggs for Easter Caroline, it’s a great tradition : )
These are very cute and you know I met Donna recently. She’s so down to earth and charming!
She seems really lovely, love her creatures. I’ve got Rill watching me at work : )
