Terry’s Chocolate Orange Easter Edition With Crushed Shells (Iceland) By @cinabar

This is not a regular Chocolate Orange, this is an Easter edition chocolate orange. Apparently. I think many of us will associate Terry’s Chocolate Orange as a Christmas treat; it is something you normally find given as a stocking filler. I love them, but I have to admit it has been a while since I last had one.

Terry’s are branching out and have released an Easter edition. I imagine there was a brief discussion about how the complexities of making a sliced egg shape were just too much trouble, and the idea of adding mini eggs to the chocolate was dismissed as well, and we ended up with Terry's Chocolate Orange Easter Edition With Crushed Shells.

I "tapped and unwrapped" the orange, and the pieces fell away neatly. The first thing I noted was that there wasn’t much shell to be seen. It was there, but you had to really look for it. I tried the chocolate, and the woosh of rich, sweet chocolate and orange filled my palate. I thought of Christmas. This is a lovely, sweet, fruity chocolate. The crushed shells do add a bit of texture, and there is a nice crispiness when you bite in. I don’t think Terry’s Chocolate Orange Easter Edition With Crushed Shells is that much effort in terms of a new Easter flavour but I was really pleased that it made me buy a Chocolate Orange again.
