Easter is getting near and the I Love Belgium Team is having a chocolate party. Between mouthfuls of Easter candy, we collected the best Belgian chocolate Easter creations.

Brussels based chocolatier Laurent Gerbaud‘s ‘Box Bunny’ is real chocolate art. Gerbaud is a rising star in the chocolate firmament and his holiday creations are every time a display of creative chocolate artisanry.
The campaign, shot by C’est Chic photographer Laetitia Bica, features Belgian singer An Pierlé (styling by C’est Chic’s Dominique Degrelle and hair & make-up by C’est Chic’s Miaou). The poppy and refreshing approach (from both Gerbaud and the campaign) takes Easter away from the boring ads and chocolate eggs we see coming back every year.
The dark chocolate bunny, a blend of Madagascar and Ecuador cacao beans – 75 %, can be yours for a democratic 14,50 euro. Campaign picture and info about Gerbaud after the jump. Happy Easter from the I Love Belgium crew! Read the rest of this entry »
