Easter, the great chocolate show
The chicken before the egg? The egg before the hen? It doesn't matter which way you look at it, as long as you're hunting for an Easter egg! Here are our addresses in Paris.
The rabbits of La Pâtisserie et La Chocolaterie Cyril Lignac
After the gummy bears, Cyril Lignac creates their cousins, the rabbits. We're also crazy about the big Easter eggs that hide mini-bears and Doudou bunnies in milk, dark or dulcey chocolate!
Philippe Conticini's chocolate creations
There's something for everyone: dark chocolate dessert with almond and hazelnut praline, Gigognes eggs with gourmet surprises, and little eggs with 3 chocolates. As an added bonus this year, a golden ticket is up for grabs in 5 Gigogne eggs. The prize? Gift cards, masterclasses and private lessons!
Plaq eggs, from PLAQ
Not Easter eggs, but plates to eat, or more precisely... a flat (fried) egg. Pistachio praline, hazelnut praline, almond praline, with all the deliciousness of dark or milk chocolate. Kosher nano versions are also available, for egg-hunting pleasure.
Easter treats from Hugo&Victor
A Nid Pascal, with a creamy chocolate heart, chocolate mousse and a marshmallow hen, hen eggs topped with pralinéor Pépite eggs coated with hazelnut nuggets and topped with puff pastry praline eggs: there's something for all ages and tastes.
Easter chocolates from Sébastien Gaudard
For Easter, Sébastien Gaudard has come up with some original cakes: Cloches de Pâques, Nid Merveilleux, Lièvre de Pâques and Agneau de Pascal. The chocolate features emblematic symbols (rabbit, hens, bells, eggs), all made from a mold from the collection inherited from his father.
Bird Bunny, creations by Maison Pierre Marcolini
Bird Bunny is a little hybrid character between a bird and a rabbit. A "mascot" sculpted in the Maison Pierre Marcolini workshop with Creativ'Eggs, praline eggs, chocolate and crunchy seeds.
À la Mère de Famille cement tile egg
Cement-checked eggs, Easter hens, hens with golden eggs, little piou-piou or scrambled eggs, À la Mère de Famille is giving us a treat this year, offering eggs in all their forms... It's up to you to choose yours!
Easter chocolates from Patrick Roger
Very French colors for Patrick Roger. We find a rooster egg adorned in blue, white and red, a flat egg, and even little chicks and hedgehogs staged in a chocolate decor. An original way to celebrate Easter.
Alain Ducasse Chocolate's miraculous peach
Land and sea creations in chocolate: octopus, lobster, crabs, sardines, not forgetting rabbits and little cocotes! All carved like modern art sculptures. Geometry is in the spotlight at Ducasse this year.

Fine Versailles Easter
A wide choice at Fine Versailles, with animals as the theme this year. Marshmallow bears, Marguerite cows, Harry bunnies, proud roosters, and true-to-life sardines.
The Mont-Blanc egg from Maison Angelina
Until April 30, 2022, Christophe Appert is offering a traditional Easter egg revisited in the Mont-Blanc style, the emblematic pastry of Maison Angelina. It features a pretty meringue on which the egg is placed with a chantilly heart and topped with vermicelli of chestnut cream.
