It's Easter basket time at Gerard Mendis Chocolatier!
Nothing makes kids happier (and, let’s be real, adults too) than a basketful of delicious Easter treats. So, embrace your inner child, grab a basket and start filling it with the most irresistible Easter chocolates and cakes at Gerard Mendis Chocolatier, located at 58A Horton Place, Colombo 7.
Easter comes early this year, March 27. Gerard Mendis Chocolatier has been preparing for the holiday rush with an incredibly bountiful assortment of chocolate bunnies, hot cross buns, eggs, chicks, hens and other goodies. Sure to delight, these creations are beautifully wrapped with hand-tied special Easter ribbons, ready to gift. They are also available online at gerardmendis.com.
Chocolate bunnies are some of their favourites. They come large and standing or petite and surrounded by marzipan eggs. The adorable bunnies are made from premium Belgian and Swiss chocolate, in milk, dark or white flavours.
Equally tempting are the “eggstra” special large and mini-chocolate eggs, wrapped in bright, shiny colorful foil. If you can’t make up your mind what egg to buy, there’s a beautifully packaged box of 16 luxury chocolate eggs each individually topped with bunnies, bows and chickadees.
After checking out the chocolates we moved on to Gerard Mendis’ signature Easter cakes. These beauties caught their eyes and stopped them in their tracks. Some of the standouts: a fruity strawberry roulade, a white ribbon cake with the cutest yellow chick perched on top and an Easter egg chocolate butter cake coated in white marzipan.
And let’s not forget that most traditional of Easter confections, the hot cross bun. Gerard Mendis’ version is a sweet cinnamon-flavoured bun made with candied fruit and almond glaze. The hot cross buns come in three flavours: plain, vanilla cream and vanilla cream with blueberry. The team at Gerard Mendis will be baking them daily through Easter Sunday. Get your hot cross buns fresh out of the oven; we dare you to walk out of the store without first popping one into your mouth. Please place your orders early to avoid disappointment.
