Easter Chocolate Bilbies & Chickens

Why does the Easter Bunny get all the glory? Don’t other Eastery creatures deserve their time to shine at Easter time?

Well yes they do! That’s why The Chocolate Box offers a range of sweet and delectable chocolate bilby and chicken easter treats, mostly of the chocolate variety, to add some variety to those baskets this year.

Easter Chocolate Chickens

Where do all those eggs come from, if not from the humble chicken? Chickens, roosters and chicks are trending this Easter, so grab some for the egg hunt. Our chocolate chicken Easter treats tend to be cute, sweetly packaged, and deliciously chocolatey.

Top chocolate chicken picks are:

Our Chocolate Bunty Chickens, available in White Chocolate, Milk Chocolate, and of course, Dark Chocolate, are each 80grams and 13cm tall. These will certainly be a highlight of the easter haul!

Henrietta Hen is also available in White Chocolate, Milk Chocolate and Dark Chocolate. 11 cm tall and weighing in at 195g (including the eggs she sits on), Henrietta is certain to fulfill those chocolate chicken and easter egg urges. Made from creamy German chocolate, Henrietta comes decorated and her eggs are foil-wrapped in colourful foil.

Let’s not forget to mention Ramon the Rooster Milk with Eggs. Made in Holland, Raymon is 80g in weight and decorated. He sits on German-made, foil-wrapped chocolate eggs.

And then Baby Dobbert adds a huge load of cuteness, decorated in green overalls and hatching out of an egg. Made from high-quality chocolate, smooth and creamy chocolate, he weighs in at 75g, and is almost too lovable to eat!

And if you want a collection of novelty chickens, there are the Novelty Chicken 4 Pack and the Novelty Easter Crazy Rooster 4 pack, which are whimsical milk chocolates wrapped in shiny foil.

Easter Bilby Chocolate

It’s hard to compete with the Easter Bunny, but Easter Bilbies make a solid effort. With long ears and living in burrows, bilbies are native to Australia, and don’t cause the environmental damage rabbits do. Now, we all know the Easter Bunny does no harm, but those other rabbits, well, what can we say?

In the 1990s, the first chocolate Easter Bilby was marketed, as a way of raising awareness about the bilby, which was at the time, and continues to be, endangered in parts of Australia. Eating chocolate bilbies at Easter time has become something of a tradition, and the bilby is always a welcome find on an easter hunt.

Bilbies to buy:

The Milk Chocolate Bilby with Mini Eggs is a 190g milk chocolate bilby, sitting on a pile of mini eggs. (A percentage of the sale of each Chocolate Bilby is donated to the Save The Bilby Fund.)

Got a big family? The Bilby Easter Family Box will keep everyone happy. This Easter hamper includes 2 large Milk Bilbies with Eggs, a Gingerbread Bilby, Milk Chocolate Happy Eggs, a Milk Chocolate Foiled Egg, and Easter Neapolitans.

Or there’s the Bilby-licious Box, which comes elegantly presented in a bright sleeved hamper surrounding our signature red gift box. It features our milk chocolate bilby and milk mini eggs, with an Easter Neapolitans Bag, Milk Foiled egg, and Mini Milk Solid Eggs.

Finally in the Bilby category, we have the Gingerbread Bilby with Sparkle Nose, which is a spicy and thick homestyle gingerbread bilby biscuit, iced with fondant and sparkles. For those who want a change from chocolate, this is a great option.
