Dominique Ansel Bakery London is delighted to reveal their take on a British classic to celebrate Easter this year: The Easter Egg & Soldiers.
Atop a seemingly classic milk chocolate Easter egg sits a handmade white chocolate “soft-boiled” egg with a vibrant orange yolk accompanied by “toast soldiers” made of golden buttery sablé Breton. This is available from today and priced at £12, as pictured below.
The bakery is also launching “The Sunny Side Up Religieuse” made with the classic two-tier choux dressed as a fried egg and filled with creamy milk chocolate crémeux and passionfruit caramel. This is available from the 19th of April and priced from £6.10.
Additional items to celebrate the occasion include chef Dominique’s beloved Peep-A-Boos, Hot Cross Buns and an Easter Hamper that includes a variety of seasonal treats, as detailed below.
