Great things often happen by mistake. So it was with the Skelligs solid chocolate egg, which started out as a standard shell and was then filled by accident. Turned out to be a very good thing, both for the Co Kerry-based chocolatiers who had been having problems with breakages during shipping, and customers who wanted more bite in their Easter treat. Weighing one kilo, the €30 egg comes in praline and strawberry and champagne flavours, with a best-selling mint brittle version at €20 and a marshmallow honeycomb one at €15. skelligschocolate.com
