What is the tradition of Easter eggs?
An ancient symbol of renewal and fertility, the egg has been associated with springtime celebrations since ancient times. Over the centuries, this custom has taken root in Christian tradition: in the Middle Ages, it was customary to give decorated eggs at the end of Lent, a period when the consumption of eggs was forbidden. With the rise of chocolate in the 19th century, craftsmen began to make chocolate eggs, thus sublimating this gourmet tradition. Today, chocolate Easter eggs have become a treasure trove of delicacies and expertise, combining textures and flavours to delight young and old alike.
Easter eggs: between tradition and excellence
Chocolate eggs are the embodiment of gourmet pleasure and the transmission of the pleasures of Easter. CLUIZEL sublimates this essential ingredient with recipes featuring contrasting textures. Discover the Œuf Prestige Gourmand, a spectacular piece of handmade chocolate, and the Œufs Signature Gourmands, available in 66% dark or 43% milk chocolate, enhanced by a creamy praline and caramelised dried fruit.
Exceptional creations for Easter
At CLUIZEL, every chocolate egg is a work of art. The Œuf Prestige Gourmand, entirely handmade in two days, embodies the excellence of the House: a thick shell encrusted with caramelised almonds and hazelnuts, a praline with an authentic flavour and a crunchy texture that makes it sublime to eat. It is accompanied by Œufs Signature Gourmands, available in 66% dark or 43% milk chocolate, featuring a creamy praline and an irresistible interplay of textures.
CLUIZEL pralines, a unique expertise
At the Manufacture, making pralines is an art. Almonds and hazelnuts are carefully selected, roasted and then coated in sugar cooked in a copper cauldron. Grinded with a granite millstone, they reveal a delicate texture and a taste of rare intensity. This signature praline, with no added flavouring, enhances Easter chocolate eggs, offering a unique taste experience.
Chocolate from exceptional regions
CLUIZEL chocolate eggs are made from rigorously selected beans. For Easter 2025, the House is honouring the Mangaro Plantation, located in Madagascar.
