Chocolate-filled Eggshells by Bonnat by Evan Orensten

The Bonnat family has been making chocolates in Voiron in the south of France since 1884. Their Hérisson (hedgehog) is a favorite of mine (a chocolate-covered hazelnut praline) and their single estate Grand Cru bars are intriguing. Our friends at Sur La Table are offering the Bonnat's chocolate and hazelnut praline-filled real eggshells-- at $35 for half a dozen eggs it's not a bargain, but they are sure to impress chocophiles and kids alike.

Thanks Craig.
