Venchi Launches 2024 Easter Collection
Taste The Surprise In New Gourmet Easter Eggs
NEW YORK, NY (February 22, 2024) — Hop aside Easter bunnies — large gourmet chocolate eggs with a hidden filling are the big trend in chocolate this Easter season — for adults as well as children. The theme of Venchi's 2024 Easter Collection is "Taste The Surprise," highlighting the unexpected crunchiness hidden inside Venchi's signature Gourmet Eggs. These eggs have been designed specifically to feature both amazing taste and texture, purposely playing up the contrast between chocolate and the embedded nuts, biscuit, or Chocoviar grains hidden inside.
The collection features something for everyone, whether they like white, milk, or dark chocolate, as well as a variety of textures to create the perfect crunch including IGP Piedmont Hazelnuts, salted caramel with toasted almonds, white chocolate with salted nuts, and many other surprises waiting to be enjoyed together. Most products are gluten-free and some are vegan as well.
The new additions to the Easter 2024 collection are a tribute to two of the most iconic and beloved Venchi chocolates:
The Cannolo Chocolate Egg offers irresistible, orange-scented ricotta cream and gluten-free biscuit crumbs in a dark chocolate shell, it offers a journey into Mediterranean flavors bite after bite.
The second delicious novelty, the Chocoviar Stracciatella Chocolate Egg, is dedicated to sweet flavor enthusiasts: a new recipe that blends white chocolate with cream, cocoa nibs, and vanilla beans, with crunchy milk Chocoviar grains inside.
