So farewell, then, to the Fortnum and Mason's COLOSSAL easter egg, which did not last through this season of Doctor Who because I LIKE CHOCOLATE.

Below the cut you can see the egg before my first assault.




Cappuccino cup for scale. From the inside, working out:

Mole spice (tiny puce egg, goose-egg size)
Quebadron Coffee
Rose and Violet (OH GOD SO LOVELY)
Mitcham Mint
Orange (big orange egg, ostrich or possibly ROC-egg size)

That totally, erm, rocs.

(what the heck is Quebadron when it's at home? Or indeed in an egg?...)

That is one beautiful egg of chocolatey goodness!

Will there be something else to fill the chocolate gap whilst watching Doctor Who?

OMG that thing was GORGEOUS! I've never seen a chocolate egg made that way. And the flavors sound wonderful.

RIP, Large Egg.

Of course! Naturally, they have to come past quality control first (ME).

It was so much fun. The last egg was so thick, I got yummy sticky chocolatey fingers every time I broke off a piece.


RIP, Large Egg.

It sacrificed itself for my pleasure. I can't really ask for anything more.

Imagine if it had been BIGGER ON THE INSIDE.

I'm not sure yet what will replace it. The local Wee Shoppe now sells big bricks of Green and Blacks, which is the default sinning choice.

It inspires awe. It has a numinous quality. It is the kind of Easter egg that the Elves would make.
