With them in mind, we’ve designed three very special children’s Easter eggs, each with a coloured decoration. This Thorntons egg features a white chocolate dinosaur on the front of the creamy milk chocolate shell. Each one is crafted in our signature creamy milk chocolate and can be hand-iced with a name or short message, absolutely free.

Eggs were also decorated using paint and given to the church and children as gifts, a tradition that still continues in some families today.
