Happy Easter in Chocolate from Paris!


It's Easter week and the new bells have rung out at Notre Dame in celebration of its 850 year history. The chocolate shops are full of Easter displays and I thought I would share a few. here's one from Mussy Chocolate at the end of our street, is that a Roman viaduct in the background below?

I must admit my favorite Easter chocolate is the humble Cadbury's Creme Egg, but even to admit it seems like  sacrilege when measured against these treats. However, I think the bunnies below look a little scary, are they cross eyed?!!
 This is the perfume shop window across from our apartment. At first I thought they were Easter eggs but in fact they are carved wooden balls made of cedar to perfume your wardrobe, that's the way to get into the easter spirit without piling on the pounds!

P.S. Today I was out and saw this Easter egg which I had to include even after the fact. Who could resist the new Pope in chocolate after all the deprivation of Lent?
