These delicious eggs are made for us in France with either a delicate hazelnut praline or a salted caramel ganache, and Ecuadorian origin chocolate.
They are part of a collection of 20+ bird eggs which form part the Chocolate Detective's Curated Collection - her very favourite products from a lifetime of tasting chocolate. Holly stocks seasonal favourites and all the other most popular birds. The gorgeously coloured goldfinch has enjoyed a resurgence in our gardens thanks to specialised bird-feeders and has a special place in people's hearts.
"The striking black and red face mask and yellow wing bars have earned goldfinches their reputation for being one of of our most handsome birds. They are the ultimate twitterer, with bouncing liquid trills and a confident final flourish. Seen increasingly in city gardens, they travel in small charms with a light skippy action. "
The descriptions and artwork are by Madeleine Floyd who we have been working with since lockdown, when she approached us to make a box of Rainbow Nightingale eggs to raise funds for the Nightingale Foundation. Her book ‘Birdsong’ has a host of other beautifully painted and described birds. www.madeleinefloyd.com

More from this Co
The Chocolate Detective
I’ve been obsessed by chocolate since I was child and always loved creating beautiful things. A degree in textile design and a student job selling chocolate in Harrods led to completing a small business course and founding Rococo Chocolates in 1983. After exiting the business in 2019 I set up the Chocolate Detective, and during the pandemic I worked alone out of a small kitchen in a gentleman’s club in Chelsea perfecting my recipes and designing my no plastic eco packaging. I also supported the Grenada Chocolate Company fundraising to help them through this difficult time. I have invested in an organic cocoa farm in Grenada and all the harvest is donated to the chocolate company who make some of the best chocolate I have ever tasting in the perfect circular economy that also respects the environment. I am the only person to have been honoured for “Services to chocolate making” (with an OBE from the late Queen Elizabeth in 2014).
