Spring is a time for fresh beginnings, blooming flowers, and the excitement of Easter traditions. While the season brings newness, some things are best left unchanged—especially when it comes to Easter chocolates. The rich flavors of classic Easter treats remind us of childhood celebrations, family rituals, and the joy of discovering a basket full of sweet surprises.
Springtime Celebrations & Easter Traditions
Easter is widely celebrated in many ways, from religious observances to joyful gatherings that embrace the season of spring. Even for those who may not observe the holiday in a religious sense, the symbols of spring (flowers in bloom, baby animals, and of course, chocolate) are universally enjoyed. The tradition of Easter baskets, filled with festive sweets and treats, has become a beloved way to mark the arrival of warmer days and fresh growth.
But where did the tradition of Easter chocolates and baskets come from? The Easter Bunny is believed to bring these delightful gifts as a way to mark the end of Lent, a period of fasting, and to celebrate the rebirth of the season. Today, Easter baskets are brimming with an irresistible indulgence: chocolate!
At Asher’s Chocolate Co., we take pride in crafting Easter classics that bring smiles to faces young and old. Whether you’re looking for a timeless chocolate egg, a festive bunny, or a unique seasonal delight, Asher’s has the perfect treat to complete your Easter celebration.
Traditional Window Boxed Eggs
A true Easter classic, Asher’s traditional window boxed eggs have been a beloved seasonal treat for generations. These hand-rolled chocolate eggs are crafted with care and topped with a delicate sugar flower, making them as beautiful as they are delicious. Each egg is generously coated in milk or dark chocolate and comes in a variety of flavors, including:
- Peanut Butter Eggs: A rich and creamy peanut butter center wrapped in smooth chocolate
- Vanilla Buttercream Eggs: A velvety vanilla filling that melts in your mouth
- Coconut Cream Eggs: A luscious coconut filling encased in chocolate perfection
