Legend of the Double-Yolker Easter Egg

Nobody hunts Easter eggs quite like the Baron. In his days as a courier for a Bavarian chocolate cartel, led by none other than Egbert Bunny IV, he had heard a rumour: deep in the Black Forest was a breed of bunny that laid double-yolk Easter eggs. With the cartel’s mercenary known only as ‘Bugs’ hot on his tail, The Baron spent days crawling through cinnamon-scented warrens, even discovering an underground rabbit-run bakery (but that’s another story).
While being chased by some very hot, cross bunnies, he stumbled into a giant subterranean nest, lined with shards of dark chocolate. In the nest was a glorious, shiny golden egg. Quick as a flash, the Baron scooped up the egg and fled to Zürich. Stopping to rest in a berry orchard, he discovered two things – that one; the legend of the double yolk was true; and two; that rabbit eggs aren’t all they’re cracked up to be.
As he scoured the brambles and bushes around him for food, the Baron was struck with a flash of inspiration. The result, detailed in a letter to the Baron’s headquarters, is a dual Easter egg inspired by his adventure – two chocolate-covered marshmallow egg halves, one flavoured with raspberry and pomegranate, and the other with spiced hazelnut praline.
