As the Easter season approaches, Asda has unveiled its latest addition to the realm of indulgence: the Cocoa Noir Easter egg. Breaking boundaries with its opulent design and sumptuous flavors, this marks Asda’s inaugural foray into the realm of show-stopper Easter eggs.
Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, the Cocoa Noir egg boasts a dual-layered construction. Within its outer shell of rich, single-origin Peruvian dark chocolate lies a luscious blonde inner egg, adorned with a tantalising metallic bronze glaze. Embracing the trend towards dark chocolate, this masterpiece is complemented by a layer of velvety hazelnut Gianduja, elevating the indulgence to new heights.
Sarah Burns, Asda’s Product Development Manager for Confectionery, expressed the brand’s commitment to Easter extravagance, stating, “Easter is a time for indulgence, and this year we wanted to push the boat out even further with our new Cocoa Noir egg.”
The accolades speak for themselves, as Cocoa Noir emerged triumphant in the Good Housekeeping Institute Easter Taste Test, outshining competitors in the dark chocolate egg category. Despite its lavish appeal, this luxurious offering remains accessible, priced at £15. In comparison to esteemed counterparts such as Hotel Chocolat and Fortnum and Mason, Cocoa Noir offers unbeatable value, making decadence attainable for all.
Exuding sophistication from the inside out, Cocoa Noir is adorned with intricate gold detailing and presented in a sleek black box, making it the epitome of Easter gifting. Accompanied by golden Peruvian dark chocolate and blonde cream liqueur mini eggs, this ensemble promises an unrivaled sensory experience.
During the rigorous judging process, testers lauded the exquisite balance of flavors within Cocoa Noir, describing it as “finely balanced between sweet and bitter.” Meanwhile, the accompanying mini eggs delighted palates with their nutty hazelnut essence.
Cocoa Noir is just one gem in Asda’s crown of Easter delights for 2024. From the irresistible Asda Extra Special Extra Thick Honeycomb, Pretzel and Caramel Milk Chocolate Egg to the tantalizing Asda Extra Special Raspberry & Marshmallow White Chocolate Egg, there’s something to satisfy every craving.
For those seeking unbeatable value, Asda presents a tempting offer with its 4 for £10 deal on select Easter eggs, featuring beloved brands like Cadbury and Celebrations, available until 31st March.
