Gourmet Easter Cookies, Chocolate & More
Special Chocolate & Other Sweet Gifts For Your Favorite People
Some say the tradition of giving chocolate Easter Eggs began in France and Germany in the early 18th century. The custom celebrated not only Easter, but also the arrival of spring. Molded chocolate, enabling the famed chocolate easter bunny, didn’t happen until the 19th century. Over the years, other treats evolved, from jelly beans to decorated bunny cookies.
