Hello all:
Today is Easter Sunday and just an FYI - tomorrow is Easter Monday and most shops are closed.
Hence why yesterday and Tuesday will be super busy at the grocery stores!
So - what is the biggest difference between a Kinder Surprise Egg and a Fazer Mignon Chocolate Egg?
Well, Fazer does have some chocolate eggs that contain a toy inside...but one special kind of chocolate eggs is made - well, inside an egg! And it is pure and solid chocolate!
Don't believe me?
This is my first time buying them - as our guests are from Brazil and I felt this was the "ultimate Finnish Easter gift" - not that I think Easter is a materialistic holiday - it shouldn't be, but because it's their first Easter here -why not?

| If you look closely, you can see a small dent where they got the egg out and poured the chocolate inside, then sealed it in! |
 |
| They are sold individually like this or in a little egg carton of 6 (or perhaps it was 4...)! |

These are only sold around Easter time and tend to go pretty quickly! So get one if you can!
**WARNING: These contain almonds and hazelnuts inside - while it is made with solid milk chocolate, the almonds are ground into a fine texture like flour so the egg itself is nice and smooth.
But if you have allergies - you may want to stick to something else.
